Skipping through the forest,
Laughing with delight,
Glimpsing my sweetheart,
Off to the right.
Sneaking up closely,
Taking a peek.
Watching him moving,
I do not speak.
Silently climbing,
Up and out on a limb.
Taking some acorns,
And grinning down on him.
Watching him move,
unaware of my perch.
Thinking how funny,
He's going to lurch.
Taking careful aim,
Then glancing about,
I whack him on the head,
And he gives a shout.
Laughing, and swinging,
Out on a limb.
Hanging upside down,
And grinning at him.
First he was scowling,
Looking quite mad.
Now he is smiling,
And, boy, am I glad.
Still hanging there,
My knees over the limb,
He approaches me slowly,
And I get a kiss from him.
His hands on my face,
His heart in his eyes.
Kissing so sweetly,
With fun undisguised.
Slipping from my perch,
I settle in his arms.
Feeling so safe,
Loving his charms.
Not a thing could be better,
than being this close.
with his heart to my heart
his nose to my nose
