there in the mountains
that place we go in our minds
when the snow is on the ground
and we laugh at our tracks
how they look like one animal
not wanting to go anywhere

I think of the scent of the pines
and your hair when it is damp
how it has a perfume smell
that makes sensations in my mind
I smell it now too sometimes
when the wind blows from the north

and some doe eyed pond
reminds me of your eyes
how you look up at me
and the sky gives them colors
they never have had before
yes before that kiss

when it didn't take very long
to undo all of the others
we had given or taken
in other places before
but they say the mountains do that
the first time lovers love

and then again every time after

Tis lovely this - like a Lady Sleeping, cradled within the arms of her lover the Mountains - embraced in their magnificence -

Morning D- and hugs

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind.
