One Stolen Moment

My yearnings took me back
back to one moment
forever frozen in time
like a photograph
in my mind.
One moment when
snowflakes fell
kissing her angelic smile
by the light of a
pale, pale moon...

How their kisses glistened
upon her blushing face
as they fervently clung
to her hair so fair
seemingly taunting my
hesitation to go
where only they would dare...

Suddenly impassioned
I embraced her warm beauty
and kissed her angelic smile
by the light of that
pale, pale moon 
as those snowflakes
now incensed
stormed around us
in their jealous flurry.
