the Christmas card

it's a very shiny family.
you can see
that in the Christmas portrait
made
into a card
sent out
to friends and family alike.
each boy, each girl,
an ornament
catching the light.
hung onto the tree well
watered,
by man
and wife.
even the dog has a glitter
about him,
red bowed
and still, waiting for
someone
to take him out
to do his business
in the cold night.
