No longer young,
enfolding your long body
in chill of dawn,
we are the banked coals of an old fire—
still a steady, even heat

quite quite lovely

contented feel to this

and banked fires can be drawn to flame

That was beautiful. Usually in a case of very few words said, the reader is given little material to draw associations from. This was not the case here.

I think this is perfect, Openfield

This is an excellent description of aging love in very few, non flowery, words

Agree about the last two lines, they are very nice. I was confused by lines 2-3, though — what is enfolding her long body in chill of down?

Thank you for sharing the poem.
