The sound of rain
falling upon the roof
wind sighing gently
through the trees
this is our background music
as you caress my cheek and
wipe away my tears
I would be your warm breath of spring
to ease away the winter chill
whispering my thoughts
in deepest night
invading your senses
to tantalise
with just a word or smile
