You Wake me Up Warm

Cold in bed
with the icy stillness
of morning air all around us
except in our soft blanket world
you breathe warm air into all of me
under the covers
touch hands to skin
and leave a trail of lonely chill bumps
aroused as your hands trail down my back
easing me awake and warm
and oblivious to the frost outside
waking up beside you
is the summer of my day.
