glorious icy January late afternoon
breath fails me
watching the snowflakes spark
like fireflies in the cold winter sun
fairy rainbows disappear in a nano
best thing about winter afternoons
they transform into night so sweetly
goldens fading
to infinite shadings of grey
slipping down to silver-limned blacknesses
then jagged sharp ice knife surprising
bone-chillt limbs
cocoon under piles of blankets
watch final light fade from the sky
and the dark surrounds
last edges lit w blue fire rays
boreal lights shifting colors
magic and cold thrusts
stabbings
an icicle to the heart but melts
in the heat of our coming together
the dreams I have
still crackling with electricity
young
spicy
the scent of you
nerve endings spark juices flow
ignite
and you are laid waste again
at my mercy again
and I can’t help but call you to me
let me touch you
let me feel the stories etched across your life
let me call forth All
your own dreams and memories
share all with me
I am so greedy
we can still Dance that bed across the room my love
