New Year’s Pattern

Every darn year
As New Year raps on the door
Frantic donations

Flour Battle

Christmas break’s swan song
A gluten-free lefse stab
It could use some wheat

Tradition Hiatus

A Star Wars detour
Stonewalled our New Year’s game night
But the ball still dropped

Vacation Blip

‘Twas Vacation Eve
Why not fix a broken car?
I can pack later

Pre-Holiday Cue

As I entered work
The holiday whispered “Soon”
Later it howled “Flee!”

Another Holiday

Sunday played a trick
To silence Monday’s uproar
Let the alarm sleep

Hallmark Holiday

Valentine’s Day props
Candy, cards, reservations
I prefer shared time

National Holiday for Some

Dream Monday morning:
My spouse’s alarm buzzes
Holiday for me

Christmas Sounds

Outside is silent
Life moves inside for a day
Gift wrap rips, time slows

Soggy December

Rain melts the fall’s snow
Douses the postcard Christmas
How are sleighs in mud?
