Affection

Wishing a warm night stargaze, only
encountering Mar’s bitter chill

Reaching toward his strong arm
coalescing our imagined free space
when layers of wool won’t do

Recoiling from the sky eye
perhaps a window watcher too
piqued with resistance
yet understanding the
declined cougar mascot

Taking refuge with
revived inner strength
obliged to the greetings
from an indoor heater likewise.
