By Lynne Goldsmith
Polar bear top of the world
Rolling down on back to side
Bank of body of seas to sleep
Marble blue swirl into landscape
Moon-dream craters, plateaus,
Sea ice, floes,
Leads and polynyas,
Waters of cold, Bears
Daring to go inland
Arctic their world
For disappearing
Further their swimming
To melting of no reach
Like guard hairs of hollow,
Scattering of light,
Visible wavelengths
Rippling
