A Small Stone #30
I take a deep breath
And relax
My spirit is at peace
I think of sandy beaches
Sand between my toes
Now desert sand
And stickers in my toes

Message in a Bottle 1-3-11
Communication comes in many forms
Perhaps a smile across the room
A folded note slipped into the palm
The phone rings
The bell on the computer announces
You've got mail
It used to be
Word or symbols scratched
On a canyon wall
Smoke signals
A note tied on the ankle of a pigeon
A telegram sent over wires
A letter slipped into an envelope
But nothing really compares
To a note in a bottle,
The sender doesn't know the destination
Or if it will arrive at all
It is an act of optimism
To see if it will be found
Where it will go
And if you will call
