Let You and I Rest
Poetry
Looking out the foggy window
Feeling the warmth at our backs
As the fire casts a light glow across
our faces
The white flakes continue to fall
in the corner the twinkle of light
boxes in red and green
with blue and yellow ribbons
lay underneath the tree
how do you feel I may ask
with a slight tilt of my head
in your direction
I encourage you to speak openly
as we enjoy these Winter days
not many will be
when the Sun begins to warm
our faces instead of the fire
but you and I rest now
looking out the window
enjoying the warmth
The fire brings to our backs
the love we share in our hearts
The gift we cherish most you and I hand and hand
