Winter Dream Fancy

Cloud ribbon candy-like skies, appear full
                        Bursting with winter dream fancy
              As though one could fashion a day made of wool
                 With snowflakes so thick that you can’t see

                     Yet on the horizon, a figure in red
                       Appears in a flash of reflection
           And so, through the frosted white breezes, I tread
                 To see you make your way, my direction

                I could not believe you had come back to me
                  I’d have cried lest my tears begin icing
             So instead, I just run, without pause or concern
                     Right into your arms, so enticing
 
                I wondered the reason this winter tide chill
                     Had crept up on me, unsuspected
                Alone, with this cold empty heart left to fill
                 It should have been something expected

              But now through this magical snow dust of love
                 You are here and the freeze has abated
              And I thank all the Jack Frosted heavens above
                 For two hearts,  now so warm and elated
