Cracks

As the ice walks underfoot
I wonder
As one crack appears
I see hundreds jump
30 fall
Millions step back
Wondering to bother at all
Could they jump?
Was it worth it to maybe fall
One tells a story
Of the water beneath the ice
Another says the thrill cannot be beat
Of not falling in as ice cracks into the abysmal creek
Who to believe the millions wait and ponder
Ice ablates a little longer
