Christmas is over
cards in a rubberband.
The trees are either fallen
or crushed in their box.
Trifle for breakfast
piles on the weight
but fridge leftovers
are keeping wallets safe!
Parks full of picnics,
footballs, family groups.
Sunhats, Afghan caps,
shawled headed women,
prayer gazebos under trees,
Pacific Island organised fine mats.
Chocolates are melting,
strawberries, cherries shared.
The wind takes hats off
a new decade arising
New Year greetings text'd
from around the world.
