a stone
spawned from a mountain
rugged, shapeless and course
plucked by the hands of fate
cast down, clashing
with others of its kind
free falling from a slopes will
eventually submerged
in a river's dreaded bed

Time toils
irritated by sand and water
pushed around by the current
tossed about, churning
a rolling stone, traveling
bumping into
other speechless rocks
chipping the blocks
off of cold shoulders

settling near
a boulders embrace
where pebbles mingle
decades of stillness, meditation
sun baked days and icy nights
turmoil of grit and mud
pressured by a rapid stream
to uproot and move
a journey guided by gravity

the mountain's pearl
aged with perseverance
time and patience mastered
tempered by elements
a rolling stone
becomes,
well rounded
