As they gently cascade to the ground
The icy, biting wind swirls around me
Abruptly stealing my breath away
I clutch my jacket to my body
And dash along the snow-covered path
Admiring the blanketed scenery around me
My steps hasten toward my destiny
In the distance, the ice covered pond
Brightly glistens in the clear moonlight
Ice blanketed trees bow down before me
As the wise, old owl calls out into the night
I breathlessly reach my destination
And hurriedly glance around
The wind whistles a melancholy tune
As I unhappily lower myself to the ground
I attempt to control my hastily beating heart
And recapture my stolen breath
Torrid thoughts dart through my troubled mind
Have I possibly arrived too late?
A piercing sound echoes behind me
A tree limb crackles in the night
I quickly scamper to my feet
In time to observe his handsomely smiling face
He hastily rushes toward me
And pulls me into his strong arms
We share a fiery lovers kiss
And breathlessly hold each other tight
As the wind continues to serenade us
And the snowflakes waltz on the moonlit pond
The night creatures scamper around us
As we disappear into the night
