Sharing a whiskey
A fire and
A cuddle on
A snowy Christmas
Eve you uncurled
Yourself from me
And sauntered into
The bedroom through
The darkness leaving
Me to turn
Out the lights
In the silence
I heard a
Clacking from outside
Checking snow covered
Windows seeing nothing
I opened the
Door and saw
Blinking in front
Of me reindeer
Like eight shivering
Waifs then knowing
That Christmas had
Come to our
Tiny quiet cabin
