This takes me back to when my partner was wood carting during winter a couple of years ago. We'd be down to our last piece of wood, and he'd turn up after ten hours on the job, buggered, but with a load of wood just for us, bless him!
This is a very sweet poem, and I always enjoy one that reminds me of a precious time in my life. Thanks for the memory!

A very nice poem to a man you obviously admire and feel deep love for. A marriage to last forty years is an admirable accomplishment these days. God bless both of you!

A very warm and comforting scene; a great way to show a deep love, with just one simple act of bringing in wood to keep you warm. A poem that speaks of long term love and care.

I think this is a good entry for the 20 Word Poetry contest.
This short verse tells of staying warm on a winter night, with a loved one.
Well done and I wish you good luck with the contest.

Comment from gingermo
I love the imagery in this poem and the picture you paint of your husband is adorable. Could I be so bold as to suggest a different phrasing to make it flow better. The contest says its a 20 word poem contest so i guess the words can be any which way. Everyone has their own ideas and feel free to tell me if you don't like my ideas and stick to your own.
On this blustery winter's night
Covered in snow
carrying heavy firewood
you bring warmth and comfort
with your lasting love.
The picture and the poem are the epitome of cosines and comfort.

Its good ... it delivers its image and releases the word character well but needs to be more refined and more appropriate to its endearing quality of deep satisfaction.

Hello Laura,
For me, it is the simple actions, like carrying in a load of firewood that resonates with me and speaks ... no shouts... of love. I don't need a lot of fancy wines or dinners or expensive gifts.
Thank you for sharing!
