Frozen Over

the north pier lighthouse frozen over
snow and ice is all you see
frigid, long icicles hang



For Rick Parise's contest, "- I'll Have One Kimo Please"

Thanks Andrea for your comment. This lighthouse I have seen only in summer. Frigid weather freezes anything near the Michigan's shoreline at this time of year. Warm Smiles, Connie

Hi Connie, it’s always a pleasure to read your work. The way you work in the words no matter what the form -just beautiful. The thought of a frozen lighthouse is oh so not one in the sea would want to encounter -you've shown it well. I’m definitely looking forward to reading more poems from you. Vicky.

Thank you for your wonderful comment and stopping by. This lighthouse I've visited but only in the summer. Too frigid out there this time of year with the lake effects of ice and snow. Warm Smiles, Connie

Thank you Frank for your comment and for stopping by. I hope all is well with you. Nasty weather here in Michigan. Roads icy, slipping and sliding and doing the shuffle walk going to the mailbox. Warm Smiles Always, Connie

Thank you for your wonderful comment. The Light house is on the east coast side of Lake Michigan. A photo was on facebook. A wondrous site for sure. I have gone there but not in the winter. Warm Smiles, Connie
