Best Times, Worst Times

MY CRY

help help help me,
help me—who?

how how how—
I have no clue

lost lost lost,
I cry to you


THE VERY BEST

The card we send
this Christmas season
may look familiar,
and there’s a reason.

Why search for cards
(or friends) more dear
than those we love,
already here?


HARD TIMES

delivering last year’s
leftover Christmas cards
at this year's visits

[Hard times snowballing at Christmas; there has to be another poem there somewhere. ]
