A Cold Winters Night Poem by james d nall,jr

Rushing to get undressed and into the bed
We're both covered up, even our heads
Holding each other so tight to get warm
While outside the window blows a snow filled storm
Our teeth chatter, bodies shaking
Now we can feel the heat our bodies are making
Winds howling outside this night
Shadows of tree limbs give us a fright
In our bed, there can be nothing better
Than the simple act of sleeping together
Its not the sex or even companionship
Just holding someone close, while into a dream you slip
Feeling secure and safe from everything
Makes your life together seem everlasting
