How satisfying to see a path carved into ice
by a tiny stream of water
Jennifer Butler Basile
A tunnel with curved sides,
etched in glass
so solid, yet ephemeral
A rivulet running through the sandy shoal of a street
Sheets cascading around and about our feet
Miniature ice floes to our giant selves
Undermined and fragile at the edges
if dense and sturdy at the center

/ March 14, 2015Is it weird that as much as I have hated this winter I am feeling a weird sadness and anxiety about the thaw? What the heck is wrong with me?? Cool photo.
