Freeze Over


When the icy winter comes

With revenge on summer for takings it's place-

The lake begins to freeze over.

Each particle, molecule and atom

Takes its place in creating a shield of ice

As strong as the rock that held Excalibur.

The ice creeps over the lake swiftly

Like mist creeping through a graveyard.

Once frozen over the skaters come

And cut into the ice with their blades

To leave scars, the remnants of winter joy.

Until...

The warmth of spring comes barging in

And the perfume of blossoms fill the air

Then the scars on the ice melt away

Along with the rest of the icy shield
