I am tickled
by simple things
and this morning
I am beside
myself with glee
and my giddiness
changed my morning
kiss for you
from quiet affection
to startling confusion
what what what
you asked sleepily
it’s snowing it’s
snowing in Denver
sitting up looking
like a badger
poking its nose
above its den
it is snowing
now cuddle me
and kiss me
let us watch
this snow together
tonight and play
in it tomorrow
