Dusted Gold

An ordinary stone 
Who can know 
Moving from season to season 
Not so very slow
Forced to undesired 
Positions 
But perseveres 
A stone with hope

Who can care about something 
So small 
Who can know 
A stone that 
Relays on challenges 
After stricken 
Waits for the next
To be moved about
On the grounds 
Of the earth 

On the surface 
To the kickers direction 
Adventures corners of the earth 
Uses problems as opportunity 
To climb to the utmost peak 
 
Dreaming to reach water 
And peel off the dust 
So appears the gold 
So someone can know 
It's potential 
To bringing joy 
And riches
