even a stone may weep if you don't tread carefully
by Vere MantratriadI, in my worship
fear to find untouchable
what came delivered
signed and sealed
as sold but with
a veiled promise of
availability to
the finest offer
so I may shine up
the dirt on my knees
I may wash away
the spit from my cheek
but the fact remains
that not all stones
are meant to be diamonds
just as not all paths
are meant to be tread 07/30/2006 Author's Note: should and would if you could?

Great things can be ahead. Great write. Hugs. :) |
