Consciously Calling Christmas

consciously calling Christmas
dangling days damped;
a punctured peacock
two tulips torn
three mists moaning
four figs fracases

five oaks fostering
six seals scrunching
seven clouds clustering

eight horizons hankering
nine nymphs nosing
ten tales twisting

eleven visions vying
twelve thrones tumbling.
