the gift wrap

.

flat sheet gold green red

careful wrap straight cut then fold

one rip gift surprise

.

.

the lunch

.

laugh fetch chaos stretch

paper hats crackers pop shots

stuffed mouth fast chew chat

.

.

the feeling

.

family and friends

together this time again

catch up quarrel love

.

.

the aftermath

.

tired droopy tree

untidy mess sticky floors

teary loopy me
