December haiku and senryu

Father John, 80
sending 2800
cards - to keep in touch
~
20 degrees~
one...two...three bluebirds feasting
on beautyberries
~
winter solstice~
the rhythms
of the noisy fan
~
winter solstice~
"change within
the eternal constant"
(from Hal Borland's Sundial of the Seasons)
~
70 degrees
in mid-December ... sparrow,
then cardinal bathes
~
dewdrops decorate
the dogwood's bare branches
six days till Christmas
