Cold but wonderful.

as he drew near, with it in his hand
that look on her face,
flushed with red- still evidently happy,
bridged later by a 'thank you.'
and that was when he knew
it was all worth it.
and that was all he needed t know,
on a cold, wonderful wednesday.
-it was worth it.

tonight she planted a seed in his heart.
a seed, of hope.
