under stars chilled by the winter under an august moon burnin' above you'd be so nice you'd be paradise to come home to and love (cole porter) so tonight on the occasion of our seventh month and third season together we find ourselves across town from each other and that's why i gave you the silver crescent moon earrings from mexico and the card with the words to "you'd be so nice to come home to" written on the inside because you would be and someday very soon i will still when we're together we're home we carry it around with us like hemingway's moveable feast it doesn't matter in the least if we're in your bedroom making love on purple sheets (the color of royalty) or climbing up and over the mountain like last week when you hiked four miles through mud and snow and looked more beautiful at the top than when we started out (once we'd arrived at the end of the trail we stood on the edge of the canyon named after a bear realized there wasn't one good reason for these seven months these three seasons and didn't especially care) |
