Christmas Without a Christmas Tree

Glittery Christmas
Filled cavity on my mind
Christmas ain't yet come

**************************

Sight flickering glare
Alternately trap my eyes
But shines ain't for me

***************************

Christmas, dear Christmas
Be the present of my tears
Tiny hug in missed

****************************

A tree full of lights
Shimmered warm, deep on my cries
Sad memories blinked

****************************

Pretty past inhaled
When time puts togetherness
Now just three of us

****************************

New family tree
The Santa's gift as mercy
God truly blessed me

Well written Haikus but each one reflecting sadness and gloom. Cheer up young lady. Christmas is not the time for gloom. Shine like the lights on the Christmas tree and laugh your sorrows away. Thanks Yanny for visiting my Tanka Test of Love and your thought provoking comments. -Mohammad
