Come, Let's Play

My hand’s outstretched, within your grasp
                     So hold it, please, and take it fast
                         Allow it not to hang and wait
                             Destined to a lonely fate

                 It reaches through a thickened haze
                  Calling you out for welcoming days
                     Needing to feel you take its hold
                       Releasing from its bitter cold

               Our friendship waits for new day’s sun
                To bask and play until the day is done
                  Then, in sleep, we’ll continue play
                     Until we rise on sun’s new day
