My Little Stone

Past remnants of happy children Are engraved upon this little stone All the years after, where I have been I have found peace in my little stone Of all the times I grasped it tight Playing tag and catching snails Holding when I was scared at night That little stone that never fails Years have gone, friends I've lost Money I have made, but i'm still alone I feel the chill the slight hard frost Every time I hold that special stone
