Snow

Love warms the night,
embracing soul to soul.
Love warms the heart
in a dream that never
gets old.

Dreams of you and I
morning through night,
a sweet romance that
teases the mind.

Love warms the night,
embracing soul to soul.
Love warms the heart
in a dream that never
gets old.

Magical moments
that bring you to me,
casting a silhouette of
how love should be.

Love warms the night,
embracing soul to soul.
Love warms the heart
in a dream that never
gets old.



Having a difficult time falling asleep, I gazed out the window at the fallen snow. The glow of moonlight seem to reflect off the white covered hills and trees creating an illusion of a bright light. As an adult we overlook the simple beauty of winter. We seem to be overcome with the chores that  a snowfall brings, shoveling, cleaning off the car and the misery of driving in it, oh yeah and keeping warm..
I thought back to childhood and how simple life seemed. Not only was the first big snowfall beautiful, it came with the hope that school might be canceled. I can remember spending hours in the cold making snow angels, and igloos, snowman and sled riding and yes an occasional snowball. Staying outside despite cold hands and frozen feet.
I was never a really good ice skater , I laughed to myself as I thought of my wobbly ankles as the children and I skated on the frozen pond. Teaching them to skate and trying to hold them up to find many years later they were now holding me up.
The memories bring me to another visual lovers walking hand in hand in the fallen snow. There was something special , romantic and quite loving with the winter scene. Young lovers seem to warm the night and melt away the cold with an occasional kiss and their warm embrace.
Some people never actually get to experience romance or a passionate love. Maybe they just fail to see and allow their heart to feel. Closing my eyes to the lovely visual , I once more find myself holding your hand and giving you a kiss as we melt the newly fallen snow.

Go on and do it and take my hand ,
let your heart completely command.

Stroll through life as only we can do.
souls bonded out of what seems like
super glue.

Embrace with spirit and a touch of joy.
visualize the moment that nothing can
destroy.

Smile and laugh in a magical way
as I think of you and I each and
every day.


~

My head on your shoulder
as our hearts beat as one,
we challenge each day
with our own special love.

Good night my darling
sweet dreams if you will,
when the morning rises
may our wish be fulfilled.
