snow is falling
my heart of the past
the lake froze over two months ago

we walked it when the leaves fell
I couldnt stop kissing you, you holding my hand
laughing the clock ticking down

the snow is two feet deep now
not a sound but the wind pushing me from the past
past the smell of your hair
the catch in your eyes
spring weeks away
new flowers
new love
my legs tangled with the nameless

the sound of new life coming
new hope
new flowers
new love
you with yours
and me with mine

the streams moving free
new growth of the unseen
the unseen is today's hope

my life is not a new story
a love story of our naked humanity
the past, present and the future
colliding in a beautiful painting
living and loving

blessed to live
blessed to feel
blessed to have a spring
