Premium Member To Teach A Pebble How To Sing
To teach a pebble how to sing, you need a simple shepherd’s sling. The stone’s inclined to be a grouch when first you set it in the pouch. It will go silent, being trapped so tightly in the leather wrapped. But as you swing the pouch around, it comes alive; you hear a sound. At last that pebble sings with glee as you release...

I think you would have found sociology agreeable. The chapters jump right into the heart of the matter and do not cause you to stray wondering--spelled with an 'o' not an 'a'--as 'stray' would have clued you in, ... and I wouldn't suggest psychology. Why not? You'd pass out in the hallway fronting the classroom door....

Clint's an iffy fellow, tis prestige vs the ordinaire, my dear plain Jane--hmm, partially accommodating. Methinks you're a drop-off, my dear, picture a car dropping you off curbside while he goes looking for a fictitious parking space, but a gentleman he is uses the factual context of the 11th hour--OPS you to HAIL me. I gather...

The Pebble
If you have a little rock in your shoe, You will not cross Alabama, You will not cross Louisiana, You’ll have to remove it first, In poetry, it is the opposite, If you have a small pebble in your shoe, Do not remove it, think about it Make it into a poem....

Premium Member A Pebble, This River
This river travels through the world, Traversing cultures; mysteries unfurl. A rock caught in the current; this pebble, Rough firstly, each scrape, bump; at times trouble. Overcoming tribulations, the current; this rock, Travels along the bed; foundations. It’s surface smoothing, landing on the bank; Baking in the sun with waves over top; soothing. Not an end, but a...

The Pebble
The Pebble Sat innocuously Silent and still, Yet the tale it could tell, would span a million lifetimes. Locked inside, for no one to know; No one yet the pebble, Is the fossil in it's heart. To break the fossil free, loses the stone. Sit still dear pebble, retain your secret forever....

Premium Member Last Millenniums of a Beach Pebble
Rolling in the tides of time, the larger rock a pebble now, Rattle crackles with the others in the squirming gravel’s maw. Up back down - up back down, persistent, insistent waves of the tide of time: Boisterous thundering; rolling, boiling cannon roar, returning calmed in rushing brine. Pebbles flash...

Rock On
Don’t take for granite who you are Just be a little boulder Remember that you’re made of stars And someday when you’re older You may be a marble statue That the pebbles gaze upon And the world shale marvel at you And of quartz you will rock on....

Pebble Beach Day Out
Beyond the wave-sacked, lie the pockmarked dunes, heaps dug by the claws of scaly thrashers. Here they huddle, my blood kin flogging grim pleasures, wolfing eggy sandwiches, dipping tea-stained teeth into beakers. By a shoaling shale and monochrome spray one brine-splattered small fry. A boyhood caught in a swirling freshet, he whales barefoot in the flounder, skimming the slimy kelp, stalking a slippage of tugging surf. Her demeanor...

Where Are the Pebble Throwers
The first drops of new monsoon knocked our doors, Oh! The wet howling winds used to call us out, To see the jolly frogs and dancing peacocks, And to see the scattered beauty fell about. Oh! The splendid summer called out our names , To come out in the playground and play! It bloomed the mangoes and hastily to us it...
