Love's Finest Backdrop
Shimmering stars through barren trees –
I see far as the eye can see!
For clouds are in and snuggled tight,
reveling in this midnight sky.
Others join, as one by one,
each darkened house awaits the sun;
they slumber as the night doth play
and prosper ‘til the light of day.
The cool, crisp air abates my woes;
and for a moment (though my nose is froze!),
my heavy heart is warm and certain
Love’s finest backdrop is a dark blue curtain.
