Icy


ICY

Leave the safety of solid footing.
Embrace insecurity.
Focus.
Sense the slip.
Mince, don't stride.
Stay standing --
celebrate success!

  1. I'm going to think of this poem the next time I'm being dragged along slippery sidewalks by my oh-too-eager lab! Or the next time I'm ready to try something new!

  2. Whoops, hit return too soon! I love the alliteration in this poem-- the soft c/s and hard c. I can tell you spent a lot of time choosing the words and it really works!
