Space Time Ice Cream Comes To Life

Ice is so very cold in arctic circles
Where time begins as cream
Climates cling to hope
The Aurora Borealis give texture to white
Turn it around the corner of reason
Space time ice cream comes in no flavors
Worth articulating 
Colors are void, taste of nothing
Are not particular to thought
To the ways of thinking
Rocks set aside differences to light
Like ice they appear hard to the touch
Sit on the Earth and spin with synchronicity
Let gravity do the work
Ice could not be colder if it tried
Light does not pass through it motionless
Space time remains indifferent
Ice cream still tastes delicious

When I was young, living in Atlantic City NJ, I ate ice cream outside in the dead of Winter in the snow. It is one of those things that is great year round. I hope you have a wonderful week end. Have fun! Earl
