my entries for the Construct Cup

winter landscape—
snow, icicles.
wind bites. cold chafes.
red cheeks, brittle lashes.

suddenly—miracle appears.
reindeer stomp, snort.
Yule log burns.
charcoal bags await
naughty children.
elves dream
impossible toys.

Father Christmas welcomes—
hot chocolate ambrosia,
iced cookies, milk,
random carrots.

everyone working.
pick up tools—
knit blond doll wig,
sew princess dress.
q-tip blue paint eyes.

peppermint cane guards.
cinnamon essence perfumes.
tinsel. fairy lights. bells.
singing, laughing, joy.
