A cloudy winter morning after a prolonged freezing chill
All these months, not one but three
The burrows emptying their rations
Hearts gathering their paces
Young couple from their frictional warmth
Venturing into balconies hand in hand
A slow breeze caressing their cheeks
Rubbing palms closing each other’s ears
A sudden blush reminding last night’s celestial union
A long winter night a friendly fight
Ready to step on green lawns dew drops laden blades
Single shawl encompassing single soul
Promises made for a life time and more
Unsung song, surely a winter song, a melody and a duet heard by both
