a moment of beautiful – icicles
the space: drip line of a house on a winter day
the beautiful: icicles
~
On the day after an increase in temperature, when the snow from the roof is melting, the front of our house, on the south side and in full sun, is always dripping and making icicles.
They glitter and sparkle, sculptural wonders of frozen water.

ice storm
~
for three days
freezing rain and willow
have hung uncertain magic
along the river
~
ice in layers
laid on the bones
of the tree tops, branches break
candy-coats crack in the sun
~
I refuse the sparkle
resist the awe
worry
the bones will not recover
