Tread Lightly (a poem from 2012)


Tread Lightly


Tread lightly, as my tears are veiled by ever thinner ice. Shims of ice, dance in the sunlight, forever must I pretend?

The sun shines so brightly melting the barrier that holds the wells of tears.
Why must I forever remember the tear, the worn rend?

Tread lightly, my dear, for the ice has not yet set.
Soon the shadows will come, the winds will blow, and forever will the ground grow cold.

Simmering shadows, walking along the edges of life, memories refusing to fade-
How soon, how soon will the river dance away, carrying the last shimmer of melted ice?

(Tread Lightly
Lingering memories, broken hearts.)
