The missing shorts
Putting the flash into flash fiction for this festive poem!
Boxing day
A day of cheer
Till his lucky boxers
Disappear
A desperate search
Both high and low
He can't back down
Nowhere to go
The fight draws near
The crowd awaits
Without his shorts
It's left to fate
He's fearing failure
Doubt creeps in
Without his shorts
How can he win?

Coronamas
On hearing we should start getting excited about Christmas now

Bulging from
His sack
This year he's got less reindeers
In his festive bubble
Cos if they spread the virus
We're in for worldwide
Trouble
Angel's there all distanced
Right at the top
Of the tree

Left uneaten
Chocolate money
Leaping Lords
Replaced by bunnies
We're still in winter
Though a little sunny
Christmas on
Last legs

Inspired by this time space we currently find ourselves in....
The land of betwixt and between
What's been
Versus
What is unseen
Next year hints
A clarity
Of vision
Perfect for
Leap year
Decisions!

Mistletoe Mistakes
They wanted to kiss
Yet missed
With Mistletoe
How could they resist?
What he didn't know
Was he'd stood
On her toe
A short lived bliss
All of their hoping
Just turned into hopping!
