Russell Sivey Poet Free verse

Tender-Foot

What do you do
When the sun is over you
And icicles drop down
On your big toe
Would you scream profanities
Crazy words would you say
Then you might crush those icicles
Under you sore feet
That’s exactly
What you would do
You tender-foot

Carolyn Devonshire November 6, 2011 at 11:46 AM LOL Very witty, Russell. Actually, my doctor told me not to walk around barefoot because I have nerve damage/numbness in my feet and might not feel it if one of those icicles crashed down on it. Of course, there's little chance of that happening in Florida:) Love, Carolyn
