A pebble rides the tides A pebble in the ocean rides the waves The tides roar announcing their arrival. Kissing the shore they withdraw Only to return with the tide that flies it to the moon Dauntless though the waters unknown Reach for the stars a million years away A pebble rides the ocean waves And not always can the tides be heard But silence could speak a thousand words The tides could draw it in and swallow Could kill enthusiasm leaving it hopeless Then crush it's bones making it weary Still taking the chance to go the distance To explore the unknown and the unfamiliar What lies ahead what's lost behind Above the earth beneath the sky A pebble rides the ocean waves If all was light...then I would have never learnt the dark...from which such truth evolves from which evolves the light... Avanti Rao |

A very unique perspective, AVANTI. It's something you don't think about, how a pebble could ride the waves. Very well written. Has my vote. And I just want to say that I appreciate the time you took to read what I submitted and understanding. It helps me to know that there are caring people who can see beyond what is not so important and see that Love is what matters more than anything, especially when it is True Love. Peace to you, Geoffrey |

AVANTI, I love the water!! This was a great piece. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
