lovers at the pond

the pond is frozen.
i can see the skaters out there.
circling.
in their red scarves,
their gloves and hats,
red cheeked
and smiling in their youth.
they will be there into dark
as a quiet moon
appears.
some will become
lovers and look back on
this day with wonder,
some will go home in tears.
