Shadow Side

Full winter moon:


the icicle


the icicle’s shadow


Geraldine Clinton Little

————————————————

Up the hill

Onto the peninsula

Up the driveway

To the cottage


Snow is everywhere

We walk to Rutland Water

Past rooftops

Past church spires


Past the thatched house

With icicles, long icicles

Hanging from the window frames

Hanging from the door frame


Then on past trees

Past the post box

Through the fields

To the shoreline


With poachers acting as gamekeepers

Fishermen being as children

The frozen, icy water

Offering play for everyone
