Stones

by

Steppenwolf

 

Gathered on the ground near the drain

Small stones sit in flat configurations

Washed by the clean rain an infinite number of times.

Colors never seen by God or his artists

Nor planned by hired experts

But delicate like an insect’s wings

So subtle that it makes you yearn for something

And you don’t even know what it is.

Maybe it’s a desire to copy those colors

To be the one who could actually do it

To capture what nature does effortlessly.
