the ground

       reflects

  orange light,

and the wind

        playfully bites

 and kisses

          your face.

 there is a soft chill

             on the late night air;

    your fingers

smell sweet,

           like the inside

                         of her thigh,

  and ten or fifteen years later

                                   you will remember to love the winter nights.
