I must have thrown
A billion rocks
When I was a kid
I had more time
Than I needed
So I threw it away

The spinning stone
Is a moment thrown
The distance tossed
Is the moments lost
The kid alone
Is good at stones

Toerag: Beautiful poem! It reminds me of a couple of sayings "Youth is wasted on the young" and "You don't appreciate what you have until you don't have it anymore." Great job, sweets!

Lor: I agree... how I'd love to sit in on one of his classes! *G*

I didn't throw them, I planted them.  Kind of misunderstood the concept of the "rock garden" ~ loved this poem
