Snow Covered Pine

x

Leaning on a tree,

Snow covered branches above,

Conjures thoughts of you.

x

Boughs shield from sunlight

As your arms once shielded me.

You are with me still.

x

I watch wistfully

As the Sun sinks to the Earth.

I long for your warmth.

x

Day birds, they grow still.

Rose petals close for night.

I lay down to sleep.

x

As my mind quiets

Recalled are thoughts of your eyes.

You are in my dreams.
