MAGPIE...Prompt #198
THE ICE CUTTERS/ 1911/ Natalia Goncharova
THANK YOU, Tess....for Magpie Tales...
COLD
I'm so cold without you.
My heart,
no longer a red fist
directing our traffic,
is lying in state.
My quiver is full of shards
that will kill,
if I release them.
Yet I pester to shake loose
from the ice house.
Once again,
waiting for your touch
to thaw my wintry blood.
I'll melt,
flow
into a wave of celebration.
