If the World

If the world were only a stone
    and not a mixture of soils,
Human beings would
     Have been stones themselves.

Quite a profound statement, Honesty! Unfortunately, we meet some people who do seem to be made of stone. Very, very clever poem. Love, Carolyn

Another very intriguing thought! I guess that some people definitely do seem like stones even if the world is as it is... nikko :)

Great! And, so far as I am concerned, one helluva lot of them are little better than stones. Love, Dave
