In the hush of winter's breath, a whisper in the air,
A promise of enchantment, a joy beyond compare.
The sleigh bells chime, a herald's tune,
Announcing Christmas, rising like the moon.
Snowflakes pirouette, a ballet in the night,
Blanketing the world in a shimmering white.
Fireside tales, a warmth that binds,
As Christmas draws near, in hearts it winds.
Adorned in lights, the streets aglow,
A kaleidoscope of colors in the evening's show.
Evergreen sentinels, adorned with care,
Bear witness to the magic in the frosty air.
Through frost-kissed windows, anticipation gleams,
As children dream of Santa's timeless schemes.
Glimmers of hope, like stars in the sky,
Illuminate the spirit, as the day draws nigh.
Gifts wrapped with love, beneath the tree,
Each ribbon a tale of generosity.
In the laughter of loved ones, a melody,
As Christmas Eve unveils its symphony.
A feast of flavors, a banquet so divine,
Where love is the spice that makes hearts entwine.
Around the table, hands held in grace,
As we embrace the joy of this sacred space.
The twinkle of eyes, the glow of cheer,
Christmas, the maestro, orchestrates the atmosphere.
With every carol, every heartfelt tune,
The world unites, under December's moon.
So, let the countdown echo in our hearts,
As Christmas arrives, a masterpiece of arts.
In the warmth of love, beneath the Yuletide moon,
We welcome the season, like a festive tune.

His Haibun
He does not like poetry; I write it anyway and do not tell him. It's true his face is not a poet's face. It is round and open, youthful; too apt to be compared to the sun. His nose is neat. It is impossible to imagine him smoking a cigarette, terse, full of cheekbones and tension. His warmth burns my fingertips. I am here for his fascinating body, the haphazard freckles I touch one by one; he is here for my eyes, just my eyes. A sunbeam sneaks through the curtains and pierces us both, sizzling the spices of his skin. I inhale and wrap myself in him. He kisses my eyes.

My fingers inch closer to the keyboard, itching to obliterate a day's worth of work. It's some of my best writing I've done to date, but at what cost? The words seem to bleed, dripping onto my desk. For a millisecond, I'm sitting in front of a crime scene, looking at dead, begging eyes. Why? Why me?
