Crunch of Stillness |

Yes my love Though I am away... I am there. For, you see my lady. I shall remain at your side through each day.. each night.. In spirit, running wild, free. Running an endless race down a slope of the heart... I am there, I am in your eyes, in your blood, the breath you breathe, in your dreams, in mine. Come into the night air as breezes blow the hair of fine, the silk of flow. As our moon rises. As a wolf howls and echoes die. As we walk in crunching still of whitest flake. Touch the branch of love’s tree. Watch the finest mist of frozen tears fall from the bows of bend. Stand, shiver not as we embrace and the fires of passion warm the wine of sensual grapes upon the vine of our lust. As lips touch and taste. As hearts entwine in beat and sighs become moans on the stillness of a finely crusted snow covered blanket.... Till..... Spring rains run us inside to the dance of candle flames and fiery coals.... When the SnowMaiden Smiles.... |
