Poems
Nov 2022
Department Store Santa Claus
Soap flake snow
and a plastic
candy cane path
to the gingerbread house
and velvet throne
where he sat
cheeks rosy
and oh so so jolly
with a little help
from a magic flask
and it goes without saying
those were the days
risky yes
but that was most of the fun
feeling so free
riding our Christmas bikes
without helmets
pretending we were pilots
flying without charts
barnstorming
hook or by crook
or
our chinny chin chin
and by the worn-out seat
of our corduroy pants
A word holiday painting.
