Standing on the edge of the road with you in my gaze <br />In the midst of a winter wonderland <br /> <br />An April afternoon <br /> <br />If April showers bring may flowers, then April snows bring…? <br /> <br />You <br /> <br />All around tiny snow flakes fall into my hair and yours, <br />Your hands and mine <br />Hail comes down, making that tinny, crunchy, biting sound like <br />The footsteps of a giant metal praying mantis <br /> <br />Cars rush by, pushing the wind past so it <br />Sweeps us with its white cold arms, moaning as it <br />Rushes across the bare tree tops <br /> <br />But in your arms I am <br />Protected <br />My mouth kept warm by yours <br /> <br />The air above is a dusky gray <br />In your eyes, the sky’s forgotten gentle blue <br /> <br />Ice in my hair, shaking from my curls as I laugh <br />At your frozen locks, the melted drops on your cheek <br /> <br />All around is a <br />Blank sky, wind, snow, sleet <br />White-frosted roads <br />ICE <br /> <br />But where we are <br />There is only <br />FIRE <br />~<br /><br />gina prettybrowneyes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/making-out-in-the-snow-fire-and-ice/
