How many nights have I slipped in beside you
After
the trials of the long day are done?
Nestling
in for a well-deserved respite
From
all of the cares that the world has laid on.
Cold
winter nights where the nip of the air
Bites
the covers as you snuggle close to my side,
Hearing
the heartbeat, which lulls you to sleep,
Seeking
the warmth that our bodies provide.
The
cool of the spring when the windows are
Finally
open and we hear the sweet serenade
Of
the nocturnal creatures who lulled us to sleep
And
then woke us at dawn with their vocal parade.
Summertime
heat can be quite overbearing,
And
drives you away to the bed's other side.
A
quick goodnight kiss and you scurry away
Wishing
the bed was again twice as wide.
Of
all the seasons I think I love autumn
The
most, when all of the world heaves a sigh,
And
you start to snuggle back into my arms.
I
never complain… never ask why.
We
end each evening with a kiss and
A
solemn promise; not a warning.
Touching
your cheek I softly pledge,
"Goodnight.
I'll see you in the morning."
