I’m awake early
On this dark Christmas morning
The night calmed by snow
I hope each of you has a blessed and refreshing Christmas.

Today’s Haiku: Lost Within My Thoughrs
Lost within my thoughts
May the dark consume me now
Joys hidden from view

Easy to get lost
Gazing into the future
If the compass lost
