O Christmas tree
Proudly bearing on
your outstretched branches
Bright lights and
Tender memories
And each year
In your shadow
Linger those we’ve loved
~
Merry Christmas memories to you.

Carpe Diem Haiku Kai Seven Days Before Christmas 2016 #1 a new dawn

anger dissolves
like mist from frozen ground
revealing peace
Having a little fun with Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge this week. The topic is Animals.

I’m not sure of the denomination of this church but there is something inviting in the simplicity of this door.

Carpe Diem #1096 The Great Wall of China by Einar Englund
~
safe behind the wall
grazing in muddy marshes
water buffalo
I Want To Know
How the moon learned
to shine
Why planets don’t
get dizzy – spinning
What the stars do
during the day
Where clouds find
rain and snow
Who whispers to
the wind
When you knew
you
loved
me

Carpe Diem #1097 Serenade in D major by Ethel Smyth
~
train whistle
echoing through the night
lonely serenade
It’s ‘Stuff and Nonsense’ in the Garden today
Just for fun we have three made-up words to use in our poems –
snarfdiffanous, rhambangle and lalamilty. I even added some of my own 😉

Snow Day
Delightful
Insightful
And just plain snarfdiffanous
The best part of all
There is no school
No stinking rules
Sledding
Heading
Down steepy hills
No stranger to danger
Scoff at lalamity
Don’t give a damnity
Amazing
Fire blazing
Snuggle under a rhambangle
Slurping hot chocolate
Watching cartoons
Munch crunching phaloons
Carpe Diem Tanka kukai
winter love
decorated tree
logs blazing in the fireplace
early winter night
old couple sharing kisses
under mistletoe berries
Carpe Diem #1089 Divertimento in D minor, Op. 3, no. 3 by Anna Bon di Venezia

misty morning
sound of flutes on the lake
raft of loons
