The Ferry Suspension
They suspended the ferry
And blamed it on ice.
With weather so frigid,
Those grounds should suffice.
The notice described
The East River, which goes
North or south, both directions
Obstructed by floes.
The fleet is aluminum,
Making it tough
To navigate safely
With waters so rough.
I don’t take it often,
But those who commute
Must be wishing this ice
Will be given the boot.
Which is just like the hope
Minnesotans possess,
For both versions of ICE
Cause incredible stress.
