still waters speak

A pond is but silent. No more in neglect
One stone sets the motion of the ripple effect

A splash from the stone start ripples to grow
Waterlillies, Cattails, all soon are to know

Wider and further will the waves take
Never forgotten are sounds that they make

The stone sinks alone with only thoughts to collect
The pond will sing on the ripple effect

    upon the bank of the grass green pond
    the search for the rock so smooth to skip beyond
    to the other side causing ripples to merge
    tis a wonder these ever cease to surge

    and delite is reflected in a youngster's eyes
    as the rock is flung side-armed under skies
    so blue in a moment of purest pleasure
    no rule, no gauge - naught could ever measure
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    nice and simple...its funny you mention the pebble...its often forgotten

    Kinda like the person who starts a rumour....they are often forgotten while the rumor spins out of control

    Yes! You do understand what I was saying. That's what it was all about.
    Nice!
