A Treasure In Stone

A treasure in stone
found in one’s wilderness staid
searched for a piece whole
in need of the seed renewed
to enlighten the whole world.

Fascinating piece of poetry, not too sure that I get it exactly. Sounds as though as soul search has come up with a new outlook. Well that's what I got anyway.

A very lovely piece Harry. I have a lot of catching up to do. This club has so many members it makes it difficult to know which poems to read and comment on. A friendly welcoming place none the less!

Hi Harry! How have you been? Just dropping to say and hoping all's well with you! I like what you say here, sometimes, there really would be a treasure found in the most unexpected places, but one so precious, it can change lives. Wonderful tanka!

Now to see your poem. Very nice one ,Harry. This kind of put me in mind of sword in the Sword. Something very needful and wonderful in that stone.

to answer your question first, Harry, yes, the crazies are wanting Tom Sawyer thrown out of the schools. That has been going on for a number of years though, maybe since the 80's when PC started to catch on. I think you were being sarcastic in your comment about Soup and censoring? hahaha.
