The Route of Frozen Insistence

The Route Of Frozen Insistence My life's path always leads me onto frozen lakes Stepping with cat paws checking for weak spots in the ice looking for crevices listening for crackles Fearing the next step I take may end in a frigid plunge I asked fate why my destiny can't be a route on solid ground. Now after all these years I've discovered the reason On many an occasion it attempted to tell me. I had the Damn map upside down.

Love the ending! You went deep and did so well, then lifted me up with a laugh! I can't understand the lack of readers. The depths of your pen's skills are apparent in each unique write. Please - do the 'game' - it's the only way and doesn't mean you have to give up being sincere. Sincerely play the game! Poetry hugs ... CayCay
