Come Back, Let Them Smell the Ice!


I watched tonight,
your broad confidence
shrinking from frostbite

Each puck shoved in
made me tense, curse,
and wonder, ‘Where’s the gin?’

Punished by the box,
normally given as a prize,
for your lack of blocks

 
Your efforts fell short,
adversary team won
this high maintenance sport

Mighty Blackhawks return
White City of adoring fans
clench Stanley Cup hard earned

Weather or Not It's True!

Lingering white

floating

rocking

like a kite


Soothing cold,

glitter

precious

like some gold

Surreal scene

frozen

time

like a dream

Old man winter

mood

divides

like a splinter

Better days

release

warmth

like lovers' gaze
