Life...

Life...

A Poem by Lisa Verdon

 

The pretentious rock
Craggy and malformed
Jutting brazen
Upon the sandy shore
Suffering
The slow and steady onslaught
of the ocean's perpetual rhythm
Eventually
To become a pebble
Small and insignificant
Yet smooth to the touch
And curiously beautiful
In its own right
A result of years of wear

I loved this! It expresses what some cannot in pages and pages, and yet it's so short and simple. :)
I think that's what I love about it...the simplicity of it.
Very, very nice work. :)
