The Stone Remembers

           the river forgets
         each stone it 
             k i s s e s 
                  g
                    o
                      o
                        d
                           b
                             y
                               e
                                 yet.....
                                      the stone remembers

Justin Bordner April 27, 2025 at 7:25 PM Fantastic teaching Billie. I like the form as well. The stone remembers the smooth, cool kiss of the river because it gives a piece of itself to the river. The stone changes the river, adds to the soul of it. The river may not be aware, or remember, but that's ok, because the stone has added to the life of the river anyway...J.A.B.
