Viola Doncaster says she felt compelled to write a poem for the man who wielded an axe to rescue her sister's mobile phone from a massive ice wall at Irish Vale, N.S., on Monday. "He had cut the hole big enough through the ice and went down underneath far enough to get it. Doncaster, like many people in the area, had gone out to see the ice wall up close along the shore of the Bras d'Or Lake. The ice wall is estimated to be about four to six metres high and almost five metres wide and 700 metres long. Later that day, Doncaster went on her husband Ivan's Facebook page and posted a poem for MacLeod called "Luck of the Irish."
