Frosted buttons, frozen rays,
smiling through your icy pain.
What gives you the strength to grin?
What’s imbedded deep within
that gives you grace to overthrow
what freezes others;
I want to know!

Meanwhile, Melody Muses... 
I love both this photo and poem. They meet me where I am at this morning. I hope I can smile sincerely, as I brave today’s, potentially, icy visit…
Thank you ~ Wendy
Ice is hard to shed – but there is power at our disposal – so in Christ, it can be done! 🙂
So true! I have made it graciously, and even joyfully, through the first half of the visit. One half to go and I pray that I remain in the vine as I walk through it. ~ Wendy
You go, girl! 🙂
Wow-Wonderful message sewn into lovely verse!! Great work, Melody–God bless you!
Thank you Caddo!
I want to know too! 🙂 God bless you! Wonderful work!
Thank you! 🙂
Oh Melody, it has to be the grace and love of our Lord Jesus Christ that gets us through the icy pain. Love melts those cold dark places.
Thanks for this…I needed to be reminded as our family is grieving the loss of a little foster child named Gracie who just went back to her dad.
Ouch! It is so hard to understand why these little ones are replaced with those who are not good for them – the system is so sadly broken, isn’t it?
