As was our usual afternoon routine, we dined. On homemade cabbage burgers with chips and peach salsa.
We talked about the turning color of the fall leaves and the all too soon approaching winter.
"I'll need you more as winter falls, you know. When the darkness comes and stays longer than I'm used to. When the nights get cold I'll need your warm body close to mine..."
"I'll need the same of you..."
When we had relished our last bites and cleaned up the table, we climbed the stairs in anticipation. The bed was where we would spend the next few hours, finding delight in all our naked bliss. Then to drift off into a nap, nestled in each other's arms. Only to awake in the evening twilight.
