Shed

by Leonard M Hawkes

We sheltered here,
But still the sun was hot.
And in that heat,
(No longer strangers)
We easily found
The common means
Through sacred and profane.

Now as I balance in
Icy tracks, trampled snow;
Gasp winter wind and
Fumble awkward key
Into frozen lock—

I seek your simple ease,
And that common warmth of summer.
