Coyotes yipping sometime around midnight.

Our bodies close together, seeking heat.

Sleepy kisses as we try to find rest.

The sound of your voice as you share with me your mind.

The wind whistling through the small top corner hole of our tent.

Your smile as we cuddle up and watch the sunrise from our shelter.

The day passing by just as we want it to, no obligation or sense of urgency.

The thoughtful way you squint when I’ve asked you a question.

A bit of afternoon delight before a beautiful hike.

The twinkle in your eye as I catch you admiring me.

Your strong hands as you lift me down from a perch I’d found.

Making dinner on the ground and eating it together beneath a blanket of stars.

Feeling my love for you moment to moment.

I miss being back there, with you.
