Photograph “Ice Flow” from the series “River Ice” by Steve Geer
Ice Flow
An unseen arrow wind moves stealthy flow whilst polygons of ice creep upon the dark body
of a creaking river.
Sprinkled talcum white these frosty shards numb with winter’s time break crisp silence
with rasping chatter.
Sun-kissed jigsaws withering with age a shuffled pack of shapes like the pieces of a life
in memories melting cells.
