Analysis of Pebbles, Rocks and Mountains
Pebbles Rocks and Mountains
Pebbles Rocks and Mountains
Sometimes I feel like a pebble resting by the stream
extremely unique but one of billions it seems
My only purpose is waiting to be skipped lightly across the water
As a rock my travels carry me far being thrown across fields off bridges sometimes at stars
I view the world wide eyed risking being told Monumental lies
Living like the mountain not easily shaken
by insincere promises others may have broken
Thank you God for loving me so I continue to grow to know
I am strong like Everest/Kilimanjaro Whose body although bruised by the elements
still glows with beauty abound
Love joannie willlams
