Snow Globe

Here and now

Perfectly this

Skin of suede subtly lit up

Lips moist for a kiss

With stars in luminescent eyes

Cheeks dusted with flakes of snow

Shrugging against the burning wind

Swiftly reddening a near frozen nose

Strands of toasted chestnut blustering under a cozy hat

Chilled chiseled hands shoved deep into pockets

Voice leaving ice crystals careening through frosty air between us

Forcing my swelling heart free of its socket

If only for this brief moment life would suspend

Freedom found frozen through time with you

Reality warped so our moment will not end

Encased in this stunning winter view
