Cardigan Weather

Cardigan Weather

Tonight
On the
Lake
Some where
Up
In the
North eastern
States
Walking
To the docks
While
You're
Holding
My hand

The water
Is cold
As the
Steam
Is rising
Above
Meeting
The warm
Air
Cardigan weather

Finally
Reaching
The other
Shore
Fireflies
Greeting us
As we dock

The dew
On the grass
Brushing
On our legs
Walking
To the
Big tree

But
You
You've
Never been
Here
Before
No one
Has
Except
Me

Finally
Opening
Your
Eyes
To the
Tree
Lighting up
With lights
Christmas
In July

And a
Star
Shoots
Across
The sky
Both
Secretly
Wishing for
The night
Not to end

Chilly
You are
So I share
My cardigan
And we watch
The sun
Slowly rise
As the birds
Begin
Chirping

Only
To leave
When the sun
Fully rises
But leave
Happy
Because
I spent
Last night
With you
