Frozen Walk
Icy shining trees in the park
glistening this noon.
Earth crunching
Everything
protected with an icy shield
A mild relief no more cold can filter.
Sparkling, transparent
frozen gel
Freeze shielding the freeze
Clinging to arms
outstretched to the unforgiving sky
Opaque white treetops
Await the melting heart
of afternoon sunbeams that
Neglect the day
Icicles dangling
from this historic city
everywhere
frozen in time
Like the iced statues in the Boston Garden
On a summers day, fragrant roses sweeten the breeze
Only my crunching feet now.
It seems to explain the immobility -
Living in an abstract painting
Shown to dismissing eyes.
