Childhood stories

Two sisters sit
Underneath shared quilts
Telling stories
Outside, the winds howl and moan
Blowing high drifted snow.

Delicious! Thanks so much for evoking wonderful childhood memories. I can recall building a "cowboy fort" with a blanket and an overturned rocking chair with my younger brother, while it stormed heavily on our roof.
