surrendering to February


i surrender
     to the warmth of your breath

          soothing the nape of my neck

your head resting atop my shoulder

     your soft breast lay on my chest

          and we share our dreams lying next to each other

 the cares of the world lost in our nocturnal nest

     and the music of the moon and stars

         make tender our embrace

as we render our hearts our souls

     into this slumber ridding ourselves of our yesterary
        
          on this memorable last day of February

  12. It does feel like a goodbye as we hopefully move to a March goodbye....romantic and so appropriately so for the month of romance and love.

  17. Marcoantonio,

    What a loving and placid ending to winter and February, at least in this poem. I would hate to disturb that scene of peacefulness!
