The couple walks hand in hand
window shopping with woollen gloves on.
Scarves and matching coats.
The afternoon is as long as the suns shadows stretch,
bright as though to emphasise the winter cold. Weather irony, behold.
The excitement of the day they carry in paper carry bags they carry in their mitten hands.
They think they will love like this forever,
that life is grand, and that they will always will be.
Just like this.
Love is hope.
