The snow crunches beneath my feet
Cold surrounds my face
And tries to reach inside my coat
To tickle my skin.
Looking out across the water
Of the small lake
I am greeted by the breaking
Of morning.
Now that it has broken,
I look around and see
The other person standing
Next to me.
I realize that I am standing next to
One of God’s greatest creations:
Life.
Her.
She smiles back at me
Wondering what I’m thinking.
Not much –
I am just amazed.
