Take a Pebble


With healing words for a wounded soul
Just take a pebble and cast it to the sea.
See the ripples curl a shallow pool
And make rings around its own eulogy.

The letters literate such a view
In shapes of sounds form layers
A magic spell of illusions,
Maybe some truth and also snobbery.

Just take a pebble and cast it to the sea
And hear the ripple in the splash.
Just take a pebble and cast it to the sea
And you'll know whatever will be will be.
