how can i contrast you to a winter's night?
the winter, which at night, fills me with fright.
the dark shadows among towering trees;
i slowly feel weak in my knees.
the fireplace is cackling,
to ignore it, i start babbling.
but you could never be ignored;
for when i'm with you, i can never even be bored.
if i should ever get cold, like the night outside,
you would warm me, side by side.
my heart soars at the sight of you, taking off like a bird;
yet birds know nothing of flirting- only you are swift with word.
a summer's day, you are not, for more beautiful you are;
instead to me, a winter's night- you are the glowing star.
