For the Love of Winter

And I can smell the windswept pine Warmly holding hands, yours in mine We move against the coming night Our aching bodies drawing the line Through the snow we lightly play Laughing madly, in love we stay Back to our cabin of logs and love As the sun dwindles to a single ray Bathed in firelight, glistened in sweat We roll and writhe and love and yet We two stripped and licked by flame Fuelled by amore and desirous inset These presents we give each our hearts Bound together we lay upon fiery hearth As winters coat enwraps this self bounty We shall never be alone or torn apart

A fine piece my friend... elegant phrasing - '...logs and love,' '...stripped and licked,' '...dwindles to a single ray.' Superb flow and rhyming. Well done indeed! Best wishes, Keith (PS welcome to the Soup!)
