Winter

'Twas a night I won't forget
We huddled close like babes in winter
Like the dew turned frost
Clutching to barren oak trees
My love was there

'Twas a morning I shan't forget
I kissed your mouth
Felt your hands run through my hair
Like a quivering arrow you shook
My love was there

I float my joy to you
Beckon your grief to me to
We shan't forget these passings
But we yearn to start anew
