Ice Dream


There is a gap 

where words have forgotten 

to flow ~ all crowded at the edges 

like snow drifts around a frozen pond.


If I put on my white leather skates 

   with the sharp silver blades 

I could set out on the ice and 

carve a poem in it’s frigid surface. 


Tonight my skates don’t fit and 

the blades are dull. Tomorrow, 

I will skate under the blue sky 

as the sun sets in the west ~

a childhood dream that is 

the imagining of my heart.



“Everything you can imagine is real.”

~ Pablo Picasso
