Ice Krispies

We approached the Hubbard Glacier, More than seventy miles long, And we watched it calve and listened To its snap-pop-crackle song. As chunks of ice broke free and fell (That's calving) we could hear The glacier pop and crackle Very loud and very clear. Occasionally, underwater Pieces broke off, too And they popped up to the surface In a burst of white and blue. They're fondly called "ice krispies," Like the cereal whose goal Is to crackle, snap and pop When milk is added to the bowl. It's super cool (no pun intended) Watching Nature's feats So I'd rather watch ice krispies Than consume Rice Krispie Treats!
