When I haven’t moved
Or gone outside
The walls disappear
And I’m in a field
Holding you
Around us
A dark ring of firs
And a flock of blackbirds
Startled by us
Flies up
Out of long grass
Into the cold air.
The sky above is gray
And threatening
You are afraid
And I’m consoling
Reassuring
‘I’m here
To take care of you’
But not controlling…
Never controlling.
I make a shelter
Of branches and twigs
And hide you in it
While I build a fire
The coyotes are there…
They always are
But off in the distance
In the firs
We sit close
As I hold you
And tell you our story
Of how we met
And how shy I felt
Around you then,
But comfortable,
Always comfortable.
The train whistle
Sounds a mournful note
And I kiss you
Gently on your mouth
And lie you back
Upon the ground
The fields and hut
Fade
The walls come up
And I’m back again
Not having left your side
But back inside.

This is truly beautiful. You know you really love someone when everything fades away and all you think about is taking care of them, nurturing them and loving them. True love.

John your poetry
it encloses a nostalgia
that the icy night brings the memory
of the sweet bonfire
and it's a memory of moments
that will never be repeated
Congratulations, friend
