A Rock Sang to Me
Green as in a faded family dress,
smoothed out by the passage of time.
A spot on one side rises suddenly,
like a face lifting from the waters.
Found on the slope of a starry walk,
it glowed with life in the snow
and was found by a wandering monk
making a trip to Heaven's gates.
It now sits, alone and resting,
on the shrine of said monk,
taking sunlight and reflecting back
the colors beheld in our minds.
