A winter’s oddity,
A swirl of ice in river’s flow.
Like rings around great Saturn’s core,
Like planets strung around the sun.

This image sure to sparkle eyes,
Like seeing microscopic flakes of snow,
Each, in turn unique, unparalleled
In nature’s sweet perfection.

Now bound by our collective stare,
This icy wheel made manifest,
As if by some external force,
One step beyond our simple wanting gaze.

The spinning of this giant disc,
More wondrous than any kinetic work of art…
It's as if Creation had conjured up this frosty machination,
And said to all, “It's time to be amazed!”
