Mish is today’s host of Quadrille Monday. Mish says
Write a quadrille; must be exactly 44 words, not counting the title and must include ice
or a form of the word.
Tears form in my eyes
They glisten
At the corners
Shimmering
Like icicles
I too am like ice
Standing as still as a statue
Afraid to move an inch
As cold as ice
Will I ever be warm again?
I ponder this
For eternity
An excellent poem Carol!

I like the variations of “ice” that found their way so naturally into this piece. A poignant quadrille that made me sigh at the end…

I love the shape of your quadrille, Carol Anne, and the way the short lines make me feel just like a statue as I read down them.
