Christmas 1 (Redux)
Happy Christmas to
everyone for
anyone who
wants can use
cares about
such a thing
Happy Frige's day
as happy a Frigen day
as your life can allow
as you can allow your life
for the rest of you
Remember that I love
some of you
many of you
maybe even you
Remember to dance
when it rains

Christmas 2
Christmas morning
awake
alone
anticipating
nothing
No thing
Some things
cannot be
purchased
wrapped
boxed
tagged
placed under a tree
Some things
cannot be
[ 25th December 2014 ]
ungathering
Walls, runnels
barriers uncrossed but by
a shout; a whisper; a scream
Sweet scream
But still
Parted
sound plays sounds
plucked
out of the silence
ungathered
[ 27th December 2014, Christmas in Barnard Castle ]
