Old Stones


Two round stones,

Weathered on river bends;

I carry in my pocket,

like two comprable friends.


Beneath the stream they softened,

Until I came at dusk;

So smooth, I tender hold them,

So soft, so frail as dust.


The warm weight in my pockets,

Is lessened like time's sand;

We pass beneath a shaded tree,

A chill enters my hand.
