Andrea Dietrich Poet Free verse

In the Glitter-Glow of Winter

In the glitter-glow of winter,
awed by a flurry of new snow 
along our path 
as hand in hand we strolled
and snowflakes decorated trees,
I saw those snowflakes glisten 
as they touched upon your cheek
softly like the words 
we did not speak. We had no need!
Our love was growing, 
glowing like the snow.

Reason A. Poteet March 4, 2022 at 4:17 AM Great brevity, Andrea. Being in the company of someone and finding no need for words is a good time to say "I love you" in other ways, with touches, smiles, hugs, kisses. Don't let the moment go w/o recognition. Congratulations on a fine thought.
