ICE AGE
What is this ethereal realm
Encased in water
That doth appear to have solidified?
How so,
that ice should transport us
to another world
where all is held
in mutual abeyance?
How come,
that life itself is paused,
and we do know that come the thaw
a great vista of beauty
shall break forth upon us?
It is indeed a marvel
A delight
A glimpse of a realm beyond our own
A reminder that we are but
small and insignificant
