Dancing in the Snow

We had reservations at a cute little bistro downtown by the railroad tracks. Then the snow started. It was falling hard, so we wavered and then decided to go anyway. We sat and dined and drank a bottle of wine and ate chocolate cake. We watched the windows fog and the snow fall. We watched it fall in front of the hundred year old hardware store and the farmers market sign. We laughed and we took silly pictures in the snow. We played and kissed and held hands. It was so quiet and peaceful. A step back in time. No fights or life talk, no decision making. We were simply lovers and friends for this night. Snow fell softly over us. It was a beautiful night.
