Poetry Friday: Glacier


Glacier

A frozen blue river
stiff with cold,
crunches forward,
tears into mountains,
swallows the earth,
leaves rumbling round rocks,
in a wide, smooth bed,
to trickle into a green river
and cool my toes.


Lorie Ann Grover, 1999

This was my first published poem in Cricket Magazine, June 1999! Photo of Mt. Rainier by Emily Kay Grover.
