Welcome.......

Welcome to my 'small stone' blog.
I hope you find
something here that will touch your heart. The poems here will all be very short, some will be a Haiku style, and were prompted by the 'a river of stones' project: http://ariverofstones.blogspot.com/2011/01/what-is-small-stone.html
Please sign my
guest book, your comments will be much appreciated.

lamp


shedding light within the heart
the Lamp of God
searchlight seeker
of dark places
reveals
and
heals

Echoes


Echoes of the sea:
washed up,
scarred,
cleansed.
Purged by salty caresses;
yesterday’s dirt erased
in the forgiveness
of a daily tide.

Industrious by nature


Industrious by nature.

Here is feast aplenty,
the eye dwelling for a while
on comings and goings:
the bee-line.
This is no charity handout,
no floral soup kitchen,
but, here, the dust that settles
when industry is done
is golden promise.

The flight

The flight of locks -
eccentric name
for flight implies escape.
Narrow boats tumble slowly here
in stepped water;
gated breathing space.
Water runs away.
