Reindeer wait
by the pane
I see shapes
A present!
Santa thinks
I’m asleep
Smells like mum
lent Santa
her perfume... ?

SPREAD LOVE (three haiku)
spread love come on! try!
be you like some growing tree
branching to the sky
no expectation
no! love is a child of mind
no condemnation
love not just giving
oh no! to receive as well
you must be willing

dance,
one ballerina
tiptoe-twirls with two pink shoes
three sweet pirouettes
Turning the key of a music box - one...two...three.
Lovely, tall and full of grace - true faerie-child esprit.

appreciation, green, nature,
Leaves safeguard my skin
From sun rays burning my chin.
Their death’s a hick’s sin
Green trees kiss the wild
While berries nourish the young.
‘No trees!’ means ‘No child!’
The damp air we breathe
Helps the soul to sit and read.
Dear leaves, pay some heed

beautiful, caregiving, child, daughter, dedication, devotion, faith, family, growing up, inspirational, life, love, mom, mother daughter,
Every heartbeat is bestowed upon,
Compassion embraces a child eternally
That uplifts a child’s soul in isolation in every way.

anger, anxiety, betrayal, child abuse, depression, lonely, suicide,
I wake up in pain
my wrists have shiny handcuffs
I am in jail
My heart feels ice-cold
It will not stop its beating
I wish it would stop
My cell mate is gone
I am feeling so alone
I just want to die
