Windows of frost already on the cabin
abundant find for those who retreat
scale the ice on frozen meat
tip of iceberg
chilly winds
alone?
trip to artic north to carve a trail
hoist a wind barrier, cope with hail
ice pellets rain from up high
shelf of ice protrudes
glacier winds so rude
alone?
but for a loyal pet
a husky canine carries load
to abundant find at a chilly retreat
sheer north, denied ice one meets.

Ah yes...'tis the season...the fields were awash with ice crystals this morning...at 29 degrees, that was easy enough to see...

Good morning, Martin.  Wonderful poem!

that's it I've made up my mind to get back into a winter sport like skating...when the ice comes
