Love Poem: Just the Two of Us

Just the Two of Us

I sketched 
You, with words
To calm 

A weary heart 
To sleep tight 
In slithering night, but 
Your whimsy craving 
Echoed, sweetly
	
The breath 
Of Northern stars
Fetching us

Gallons of 
Scented 
Rain
Like wine, brewed with 
Gleaming pieces 

Of you 
And me
‘Neath a silky sheet
