Love and winter

Love and creativity

I passed two lovers
they didn't see me
although we passed
no one else around

they only saw each other
they will not create today
because they are together
our lives built on many things

love amid danger
poetry in our conversations
sharing quotes between lovers
peace in turmoil

in all travel stories
there is a traveling companion
we yearn even in fiction
for someone to travel with

and whether sancho panza
or the child in zen and the art
the companion is both less than
and superior to the hero

Love in the winter
desire far away
time melting away
writing to the snow

I reach for your body
flower of spring passion
across the frozen ground
but only touch the cold wind
