Bitter Rain Cold

At 2 AM we heard rain,

Fiercely rapping on the roof,

Of our teardrop trailer, camped,

Just south of Stillwater Cove.

I wrapped my arms around you,

As you slowly moved in close.

Our bodies swathed each other,

Like children in a blanket.

“This is the good life”, I held.

Something warm I’ve been saying,

A great deal these days, holding,

Onto my love with both arms.

Not even a bitter rain cold,

Can damper this world with you.
