Together

Today we snuggled; I held you close and whispered to you. At the change in my voice, you looked at me with wide eyes and stopped moving. I whispered: "Jonathan, listen to the rain... listen to the rain on the roof and windows, listen son." Then we were still and silent together. You cuddled in next to my warmth. After awhile we both closed our sleepy eyes, opening them only occasionally to keep watch on each other. We fell asleep listening. Listen to the rain in life son.
