Our hands held out a blanket
and on the grass it spread.
With gentle arms it welcomed
and gathered us to bed.
Surrounded in its warming,
it brought us heart to heart
that we might stay forever
and never have to part.
The night's breath caressed our skin
and smelled of flower bloom
until we thought of nothing
beyond our starry room.
