Gathering Stones

The stones are smart
They gravel the road

And float the rocky parts
Travelling along
Holding their own

I love the smoothness of the stones
Their cool and blueness
I love the stones

Every day brings its roads

I have found a way
To gather stones
And keep them for my  
Travelling 
To help me
Hold my own

I hold the hearts of many stones

Close where they
Can hold me back

I love the trueness of the stones

They travel too
They are a part of us

Singing silent songs
Stones floating stones
