12 Dec Minuet 1
Minuet I
by Astrid Brunner
and although i want to go out into the snowstorm
to stand there naked
and to shout my love for you
into the white howling wind
i too can write a letter
with this and that
in it.
and although i want to go out into the snowstorm
to stand there naked
and to fly into your arms
through the white howling wind
i too can write a letter
with this and that
in it.
and although i want to ride into the snowstorm
to shake my mane there naked
and to ride into your body
laughing on horseback
at the white howling wind
i too can write a letter
with this and that
in it.
and although i want to ride into the snowstorm
to melt my body naked into yours
from the ice
i have turned into
mighty water
with the heat of my love
should the ice return to the snowstorm
to your eyes
to my naked body
i too can write a letter
with this and that
and a saint or two
in it.
