One Stone
We take for granted every day of life
not thinking what regenerates each one...
just dealing with our happiness or strife;
achievement of our goals when day is done.
Like tiny ants, we scurry here and there,
not seeing past our minuscule domain;
to us, a giant globe held up in air
we feel secure upon our Earth's terrain.
But when we start to think of 'the beyond',
perspective changes as we realize
Earth shares a grand relationship and bond
to all that is and moves behind our skies.
We live upon one stone of billions spun,
that twirl around a star that is their Sun.
