scattered rain puddles
attracting large gatherings
ducks, geese, gulls, and terns
taking complete advantage
gift of the present moment

by car mirror’s light
she dons her face for the world
while i look away
2018.12.27: drowsing
soporific rain
want to curl up in warm den
and sleep until spring
2018.12.26: destiny
fourteen spotlights shine
on the stations of the cross
next to manger scene
2018.12.25: open arms
branches without leaves
adorned in colorful lights
wishing joy and peace
Longing For Water
