Poet Craft: Abhanga

late autumn days shorten.

thoughts as winter draws near    

turn to holiday cheer.

decorate

 

first, string up outdoor lights.

coiled with tangles galore,

find burned bulbs to restore.

aggravation

 

on gutter, shrub and tree,

extension cord array,

multi-color display.

illuminated

 

tiny twinkles wrap round,

ice sickle flash drips down,

soon it spreads across town.

seasons greetings

[Salvatore Buttaci]

The last lines of stanzas one and three are not three syllables. But over-all the poem is very good.

[cest la vie]

First, a wonderful poem. Well crafted for sure.
Second, is it that time already. Me dangling from the ladder, foot braced on the house.. Oy Vey!!

Great pre-holiday season piece my friend!!
