White sheets rattle in surging winds billowed free
I fly suspended dangling from stars dancing
Moon cajoles like my father laughing at me
Butterflies land in swarms gathering goodness
Pouring syrup on waffles honeyed sweetness

Defrosting the Freezer Compartment
By Elton Camp
Younger folks have never had to do this
Older people, the job surely don’t miss
A freezer compartment filled with frost
At least an hour’s time is sure to be lost
A fan and hot water will speed it up a bit
Still an odious job to make you have a fit
Especially if you happen to procrastinate
It become an onerous task to truly hate
With exasperation you’ll then shout
It’s hard to get your items in or out
Surely these old types aren’t still found
Self-Defrosting ones are the best around
After thinking it over, I have little doubt
Under 30, you don’t know what it’s about

DEFROSTING ICE
temperatures soar behind closed
doors
red hot touches oozing from
pores
CHAMPAGNE BUCKET
she reaches across his body
taut
hand dips as seduction is
sought
ICE CUBES
a single block strategically
placed
defrost drips as muscles are
traced

Frozen items need some time
So surfaces may soften.
In the center, they may stay
Rock-hard - it happens often.
Microwaves may hasten things
So you won’t have to wait,
If you’re very hungry or
In case you’re running late.
Food is easy to defrost –
Unwrap it and you start,
But feelings don’t respond as well
When ice is in your heart.
It may take a lot of work
When boundaries have been crossed
To melt the anger and the hurt
And let your heart defrost.

let my mind be cool as fridge
keeping temper cool all day
and wisdom nutrient intact
defrosting at will
