Season's Greetings

The last card's finished, gossip told!
I don my puffy winter coat,
wrap woolen scarf around my throat,
then trudge my way through new-laid snow,
dodge car-slung slush—frenzied shoppers in a rush
cannot spare a thought for us.
I reach the box, drop greetings in the post;
returning now with spirit lighter, joyous,
anticipating warmth and tea and toast.
