Christmas Blues

extravagance fueled
by commercialism breeds greed
where is the infant?

Form: Senryu

Litter

sad eyes peek through folds
black ink littered across lawn
yesterday’s news spilled

Form: Senryu

chocolate promotes
love, bliss and euphoria
eat and be happy

Form: Senryu

undisturbed silence
peaceful musings, free at last
phone screams once again

Form: Senryu

apathetic youths
gather – share obscenities
deference absent

Form: Senryu

ignorance abounds
closed minds resist expanding
always seek knowledge

Form: Senryu

light filters on deck
friends gather, laugh together
Friday night and beer

Form: Senryu

flowing like a stream
cool pool swirls around my feet
home close to flooding
