Love Poem: Mary

Mary

My frozen breath filled the air, 
and passed behind as I reached 
and touched her raven hair.
She turned her head and smiled.

Mary, will you go with me I said 
and she said yes 
and gazed happy with her big brown eyes.
I turned to red and smiled.

Later that night I walked on frozen air,
stars so bright,
stars that night,
Tomorrow’s a fantastic day.
