The woman in my arms was beautiful
She was stunning, seductive, and filled with a charming wit
We huddled under that blanket
Awaiting word of a fire so we could go warm by it
Her arm around me was a comfort
And when we leaned close I felt a happy warmth inside
It was tempting to turn and to kiss her
But I didn’t know, and so I let it just ride
Too soon the fire was ready
Too soon we cast away our cloak and gave up being one
But I always remember that weekend
Being with her like that was just fun

Love the cadence on this one and the images and feelings it evokes.
Awesome!
Thanks. It looked different in MS-Word. Each stanza was three lines instead of four.
It's what I call a "might have been" poem.
