Aaaaah! December with all its poem prompts

SENRYU

eager
to take down autumn's decor
and get to Christmas
~~~

CINQUAIN
"A Warm December 2nd"

I gild
gourds and paint two
boards, repot oxalis,
mums, then nail roof tacks to secure
the screens.

LIMERICK

There once was a writer named Rhon
Whose sentences never ran on.
The harder she'd trot,
The behinder she got,
But call her a sluggard? non non
~~~

CINQUAIN
"Enigma"

With all
the rain, you'd think
window-sill, under-eave
plants would be wet. But they all look
thirsty.

HAIKU

snow still falling
but only from the trees
a lone cardinal
~~~

HAIKU

one of the new cats
steps gingerly
the snowy grass
