End-of-Year poems

UMCOR: My favorite mission site, Baldwin Louisiana
Shirts displayed at UMW's fall tea, SUMC
 


imagine getting
a call from the Space Station!
"Sorry, wrong number!"
[from the news]
~~
 
Where's my
REJOICE coffee
mug? I choose a Christmas-
tree one, fill it with yesterday's
coffee,
 open
the microwave
to heat it--there's the mug!
I got distracted when Eric's
arrived.
~~
 
warm winter solstice--
birds busy bathing
in the clean water:
robins, sparrow, cardinal
mockingbird and a bluebird!
~~
 
Three days
before Christmas,
I drink from a snowman
mug on this 70-degree
evening.
~~
 
lemonade stand
on Christmas Eve day
seventy degrees
