Iceberg

An iceberg beach
in southern seas
has sunning seals dream warm.

An iceberg platform 
hosts party-penguins primping, flipping
in tuxedo-feathered dives.

Iceberg lids
on ocean pots
keep meals of squid and krill in brine.

This subconscious analogy
may house unknown minds
that deeply lurk below.

The iceberg stalker
now, is a foggy shroud
where ship-bones groan.

Here, a sunlit castle fades:
a midnight-pink covers 
the silent melting weather-throne.
