Christmas cookies


i was bullied by you for so long 

that when 

someone 

finally told you to knock it off,

i stood wide eyed…

as though punched in the belly with something akin 

to Christmas cookies,

a red boxing glove was hung  on an “I Don’t Think So”  flocked Christmas  tree

it was a silent night,

a holy night

when i opened  an unbruised eye…

and the angels sang 

“Peace on earth, good will towards men”

and i knew that my lord…

had come

Hi, my name is Kae Bochar. Thanks for stopping by. I was born in the Florida Keys, but grew up in the Bay Area before migrating south for college. I completed my bachelor’s in English at Fresno Pacific University in California, where I minored in Christian ministry. I have also had the privilege of serving as a youth pastor. In addition to teaching special needs students and raising four children, I also studied Special Education as a graduate student at FPU. I have now been writing for over twenty years. Recently, I have written articles for iPatriot, and I am in the process of converting my front room into a greenhouse. I like storing humor and greenery, weeds and poetry, in mental tin cans. You will find my humanitarian dreams and political leanings organized accordingly. Feel free to dig through my buckets…
