An interest-free love affair …

Today is another day of work

            I teach logic and I love my work

                        so the night before, I should have taken some rest.

But I love you more …

So, I became spendthrift last night

            to spare every single moment of the night

                        feeling your silky hair slept on my chest.

I should defer this poem

to all your amazement

I had a chance to explore …

Alas, I have to get back to my duties

            or I could keep writing of your beauties

                        as long as a Canadian winter night could nest.
