Cuz It's Christmas

I sit entranced
as the shadows danced
…around me


I left the Buddha
outside in the falling snow
			…I gave him my hat


The tree tilts
The snowman wobbles
		         ….the wind laughs


The neighbor’s dog
Peed on our snowman
I told the kids
    …“he’s not potty trained.”


I wonder
If Santa likes
Sugar, lactose and gluten free
…COOKIES?????
