Thunder waits


Thunder waits within these walls,

blue millennia of unspoken words

holding their wrath

yet softly speaking of loss

in the Spring melt.


Bygone bite of icy tongue:

exposed scars,

open wounds,

the wake of years

imprisoned beneath its bulk.


Beyond, engraved on the rocks

icy fingerprints

are exposed

in the retreat.

A small tongue

licks the lake

beneath.
