Cool to Cheek Melting

When the softness has covered
and I'm outside bound
the cool to cheek melting
brings memories found
of the mindprints of yesterdays,
the footprints of past,
the world in its white
of night to days last.

As the world slows its busy
all home snug and warm.
it is I that is out there
in padded of form,
making angels in snowground
and men out of white...
I love the soft flakes
and their touch, my delight...

~~*~~

I remember those slow walks
hand in hand, under moon
and the feeling, contentment
always ending too soon.

It's a wish want in sharing
someday, once again
a walk in the moonlight
hand in hand, but 'til then

Sentimental, always,
am I towards that goal,
that someday I shall find
someone who would stroll

down the path of "together"
and enjoy soft, the white,
cool to cheek melting
of a Wynter's invite...

With a heart as loving and sweet as yours, you  will find
that special someone one day.....one who will love
you the way you deserve to be loved...

Hope, it's hard to find anyone in this small town...I will have to wait until I am out in the world where there are many more varieties of intelligent men who can see beyond the physical.
We(I) use to walk out around 10 or 11 at night in the snow, a mile or so to a local convenience store, get a coffee or hot chocolate and then walk back with the street lights and the snowflakes lighting our way. I miss that. I would never feel cold even then.


Ethel, thank you, but I pretty much don't look for it anymore. Just when you think you have it, it slips through your fingers...there's really nothing like that first love and what you thought would be a forever relationship. I can still recall every single moment of it from the time I was 13 and saw him across a room, yet I was invisible to him. It was like a fairy tale come true, for the most of 30 years... We were the last of the couples to dissolve...
I guess I should be grateful that I at least had it all...once


I think it always looks so good to them when they  see their friends split and enjoying a new life, but the truth is, they aren't happier...and most are divorced a second time. Men don't know when they have it good.
Toerag, well you don't have to smile just enjoy the walk hand in hand with someone you love.

Thanks Julie, good to see you back.  *s


Nan, I am very romantic, shame my husband never saw that in me over the years...
Thank you for reading

Pretty as a picture is the melting you describe.  

So beautiful Maureen~
