N ovember days are very short
our curtains are closed at four
vast swathes of hills lie in mist
each lamp post pools its neon light
mothers have taken their children in
boys and girls await Sunday tea
each one watches a screen, or other
ruining their eyesight - Grandma says
December days lead to the shortest one
and the children wait for Yule of old
young and old delight in Christmas but
some are hungry, cold and lonely.
