Notes About The Poem

Stone Cold Gold

A mountain high to sit and die. Antagonist would not depart. Could not move an inch and keep gold. Stone - all that’s left of his cold heart.

One of the deadly sins: greed.

It sure is and it hurts so many! I hate when kids are asked “what would you do with a million dollars?” Why do we need to teach anyone to have more than they need. Riches and blessings come in many things. God bless!
