I was perfectly
suspended in winter's isolation ~
wrapped in my body's warmth,
secure in my own keeping..
and you
perfect in your condition
both of us poised
toward each other,
frozen in our certainty
and having known
exactly what it was to be
cold and separate and sure...

we chose to melt.

   Shared warmth is always the catalyst to stoke the furnace into a roaring, passionate flame. Would that more of us be so fortunately blessed, Milady.  Well Written, Nancy.

~Your replies are so much appreciated...
they warm the heart and spirit on the coldest days~

In the midst of winter,
I found there lives within me..
An invincible summer.

It is a choice, isn't it? *S*
