[ “Icicles” ]

“Icicles”
• Who said icicles are only made of ice?
Only suspend in the bitter cold
Or float in dice
Who said pain they do not hold

• Icicles dangle from roofs
Like sharp stabbing daggers
Ready to pierce like hooks

• True icicles are for the eyes
Made of diamond like crystals
Hanging from the eyelids
Falling down like bullets from pistols

• The fountains are the eyes
The waters come from the drops of cries
Eyes become the skies
When tears of frost compromise

• Icicles of the eyes are yet bitter
So sharp and jagged
Turning a face to chill in winter
To the eyes they become tagged

• A time comes when the heart begins to cry
All the joy inside fades to die
When eyes for tear gang dry
Icicles form from every single cry

    A nice view on icicles.. ^_^ The ARE like daggers.. and I read a book (the lovely bones ^_^) where it was said that the best weapon is the icycle.. because it can stab.. and just melt and things shall be untraceable..

    Thanks for sharing this with us, Pete
    You always have great ideas ^_^

    i loved the third stanza.. it was the best imagery I think, but the imagery throughout the poem is really good and emotional. good work.
    I also like the structure.
