Pieces of ice, fresh from refrigerator frost,
asked (in their dry voices) for my help.
"We see you burned your legs," they said.
"Help us melt away."

"But what about my pain?" I asked.

"Oh yes. Yes.
We'll get to that, too."

 Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme,
They are not measured by the commitment of time.
Some emotions run too deep to be described by words,
Forgiveness and understanding-remain the most beautiful words ever heard.
