Winter nights


By Alicia proto



Recall that night

We devised that plan

That ended in tears

Pain lasting for years

And remember that dinner

We ate steak

And talked late

... About Jesus

And the saint

And you and she

Lay in bed together, merrily

And I alone

Under our old spot

Where you and I

Spent some time

All those months ago

Whose to know

But shall we jo-ke

About it all

We had a ball

While it lasted

Those fine cold winter nights
