I live in the sun
She lives in the snow
My days are hot
Hers ten below

She dresses in layers
I’m shorts and a T
She builds a snowman
I play at the sea

She’s starting a fire
My A/C is on
She’s under a blanket
I’m out on the lawn

But she is so hot
And I am a fool
Living down here
And not where it’s cool

I’m packing my bags
Now ready to go
Leaving the sun
I’m off to the snow

And yes it is cold
There might be a storm
But held in her arms
I know I’ll be warm

And live ever after
Until I am old
No, not in the sun
With her in the cold

~

A lingering breeze
cool on the evening air
touches our skin
as we lie on a blanket
below the constellations
staring out into a universe
that is as endless
as our love


even if
*we are not

~

You are the sum of my heart,
*I need add nothing more

~

She touched
my heart
leaving forever
imprints
eternally ingrained
in swirling
patterns
of my every
dream coming
*true

~~~☆

Tonight I sent a poem
streaking 'cross the evening sky
Sprinkled it with stardust
so it'd glisten flying by

Wishing you would see it
when you look up where you are
To find the words "I love you"
written on a falling star
