For Madam by Sissy Stephanie

In the freshly falling snow of life
There are footprints that unexpectedly appear
To know some form has been on a journey too
And was it cold as now
With no sun in the grey-brown sky
Yet the traveller strides on in hope of an unexpected glowing hearth
To take the chill from the bones and allow the blood to flow
Warming my heart
And now so warm
Because of you
The snow making all things quiet so to make conversation an intrusion
For no words need to be spoken
As my hand finds yours
For the laughter of love arrives with that touch 
And the world stops its relentless claim
For there is a stronger feeling that heralds a new spring .....
