An entry for Lexi's poetry challenge. I figured I'd give it a shot.
Come Closer

He beckoned to me
fingers reaching
eyes aglitter
smile fixed.

I rushed to meet him
eager,
too frightened
of the cold
to know better.

Closer
he moaned
into my ear
his breath the sweet scent
of honeysuckle.

His arms held me
strong as vine
they wove themselves
against my body
into my hair.

Come closer still
he whispered
a melody in that
soundless tone
like birdsong.

I gazed
into his eyes
shifting green
the color of
spring.
