Lost


After only a few minutes
all the trees began to
look very much alike.
He knew he must be lost.
The minutes turned to hours.
Light to dark.
His thoughts turned to loved ones.
How would they find him?
Fetal?
Skeletal?
Suddenly, a voice called to him –

“Hey, buddy, pick a Christmas tree. We’re closing.”
