The Ice Swan Lands

The Bride under the left wing; The groom under the right The Ice Swan , landing on the lake in the Early Morning Night Her feathers , intricately patterned in a Moment of LOVE Forever the thinnest chisel Curves her neck, to the kiss of her beak upon the LOVING Bride and Groom The Lily pads need a circumference scratchier to be polished ; For Love’s Landing The cold and numbness from the freezers melts from me; with their happy Smiling Hearts After the “I DO’s” They each thank me for my thirty hours of an ice block work of art Thank-YOU and may YOUR Life Together be Forever ( I also made this Swan in an Aspic Salad Inspired by Nette Onclaud for Her Contest “ Anything Handmade “ Dedicated to the Posners for their Seventy-fifth Anniversary Author’s Note I was in Hospital when Contest was Finalized so this was not entered
