Speaking to the Stone

I speak to the stone
And it does call back
It does tell me
Tells me tales and stories

The stories the stone tells
They are stories of his sadness
Because this stone is alone
Alone and overlooked by all

And so I stand here
Speaking to the stone
Because in truth
I am the stone

. ah, profound ... reminds me of the excellence of the simon and garfunkel classic "i am a rock" ...

a talking stone
a walking stone
a pelting stone
a melting stone
and yet a stone
a stand alone
waiting for a new tide
a slide, a glide, a ride
but until then just some words
whispered gently to blue birds

. just inspired ... :) ...

the way you connect the personal to the inanimate~ animates the stone~ gives poignant relevance to the self reflection~
