Ice

I've had doubts within my soul
When I was to be chosen
Predestined for victory
Even when I stand frozen

Even when the heat is on
And I fight in a duel
There must be ice in my veins
Because I've kept my cool

In the battles that we face
We must be strong and bold
Cool as ice at any price
Even when it's not cold

It's a thrill to feel the chill
When things are on the line
Be at ease, enjoy the freeze
You'll feel run down your spine

Do not let the ice in you
Melt away through your sweat
Seek the frost at any cost
Or you'll be soaking wet

It is sweet to be like sleet
Or better yet, like hail
Don't let anger take control
Let cooler minds prevail

I'll never be a hothead
Like a short-tempered fool
It's so nice to be like ice
I'll always keep my cool

I liked this write as well keeping your cool sometimes easier said then done. well done mmy friend. -Tonya

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
