For Lauren
In the deep cold black, the stars shine bright and pure
Night animal sounds surround us
The wind rustles the pines, and we
Huddle together, warm in love, and watch
The Northern Lights burn like Heaven's fire
And we ooo and aaah, then
Sip warm chocolate and giggle
In our cozy tent we entwine in a nest
Our body heat warming the chilliest air
The inside material is damp with dew
Water from us, our breaths, our love
We frighten away bears and elk with cries
That echo across the canyon
Like Tarzan and Jane conquering the North
In morning blaze, the sun crests the hills
Filling the sky with glorious fire and warmth
And awake we are still, giggling, talking
Making breakfast sleepily, happily
Because in each other we've found paradise
And, to bask together in the light of a new day
Is to find Shangri-la every single morning.
