Ice

In wintry weather this
is the stuff that I dread.
I slip and slide to work
in the early morning -
I expect to fall and
injure myself - although
it is indeed pretty!

for Andrea's Pleiades Christmas contest

Oh, Jack, you were so smart to do ICE. You probably realize how much I despise ICE and SNOW on the streets. GREAT job with this word! Congrats in my contest.
