on the open road with the wind blowing in my hair

in the most bitter winter
an icicle grew
it fed of the cold
this i knew
and the icicle feared the sun
for the sun
in its brightness
could make the icicle disappear
but if it did not come
the cold ice would grow
until it became out of control
but what the icicle knew was
what it takes many days of cold to create
it only takes one day of warmth to decimate

Noah... This writing came along at exactly the right time for me... To remind me that my cold days will soon pass.
Thank you.

you've got it right! I like to see poems that are optimistic but still acknowledge the cold and briskness of life. Great Job!

(big hugggsssssss) Regardless of the sun causing icicles to melt away, you have to think of it this way, icicles are made of water, and water absorbs back into the clouds and is bound to fall somewhere new and perhaps become one with the ocean! (sigh) Just because you have broken once doesn't mean all is gone, so rise for the occasion again, yay, you have my vote, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Noah, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Even about the cold,
your poem reads warmly.
A lovely image too. *s

noah j, I enjoyed this. It was original, different and yet had something to say.

Hugs, Marti

I like the way this poem has its cold side, yet the warmth at the end says it all.

Sometimes we have to follow a stronger voice, even if it's silent.

I really love this write. It flowed so well, and I could relate so closely to it. Touched me.
