Could the Ice Queen Feel

Could The Ice Queen Feel She was beyond such things her skin did not move leave tracks from lives of laughter and tears. Beautiful as a mannequin in a shop window her smile quivers over razor teeth, ready to bite hearts quell hope in all who love her. Yet deep within her eyes close to soulfire's still embers was a memory huddled, waiting.

Oh my! Deep and sinister and yet with a tiny glimmer of hope. Exquisite use of words, Patricia, as ever.

She was really a sad character I think. To be unable to love must be a hell of its own; especially as she wanted someone to love her. Thank you for reading and commenting.

Wow, the power with your incredible words here Patricia! You have masterfully written such an awesome poem, so full of intrigue and wonder! "razor teeth, ready to bite hearts/quell hope in all who love her," that explains it all right there within those two lines so wonderfully expressed my friend! I truly loved reading your exquisite piece this morning, what a grand poem, Great Work!!
