ICICLES

Celsius is minus three
icicles now we see         
growing on winter tree   
   
amid frosty display  
aloft shrouded by grey
leaden clouds set to stay 
  
but midday sun shines in  
and icicles begin
to warm and start dripping
  
melt-water in sun’s rays
brings bright rainbow displays
putting to shame the greys

all of our winter tree 
becomes icicle free
Celsius now at plus three.
