Love Poem: Snowfall

Snowfall

White, pristine and
silent like the
snow your
presence
embraces and envelopes
the world
around you till 
nothing
else can be seen

Still, icy and
fiercely 
protective you
fall everywhere but
somehow stay
only where you are
needed

And I march
in you like a soldier with the 
buoyancy of a toddler and the
irresponsibility of a wild animal till
my walk becomes
heavy and I fall
in your presence kneeling
in adoration, begging 
for a kiss, yearning for
you to get 
dirty with me
