My skin feeling

The warmth of the fire,

I knelt closer

So I could embrace my desire.

Suddenly my brother

Tip-toed in,

Then snuggled next to me

For he is my kin.

On the floor we sat,

Waiting for a while,

Until he looked out the window,

And began to smile.

White little crystals

Came drifting around.

Their entrance was cunning,

Without a sound.

In the morning

When we woke,

There was an astonishing sight -

The town in a white cloak.

We got up and cheered

And whistled with thrill,

Then we ran outside

Feeling the cool winter chill.

The Cool Winter Chill
