--Yesterday the pond was frozen.
This evening it has thawed.
But it is 21 degrees,
so that tomorrow…
…yes, winter’s changeability has arrived…
Prodigious conversion from that which we may peer through,
opening our vision to a strangeness like Frost’s,
nuanced and misshapen, to this glazed and shifting surface,
damascene transformation more closely related to stone than to water.
