“Is a mountain only a huge stone? Is a planet an enormous mountain?”
― Stanisław Lem, Solaris
—
A solid mass
Perfected by the tides
Infused with salt
And a solar-gold blush
Or paled
To a translucent gem
Perching on the sandy cushion
The stone beholds the waves
High and low
Lives come and go
The stone remains
Proud and patient
Every ticking second
Elevating its composure
A solitaire army
Bonding the land and water
Dwelling the worlds
Of men and mermaids
Unimaginably profound
Are stones more beautiful than humans?

For some reason, I feel compelled to comment on your writing. I think it’s like an “inspired” thing… I’m challenged by your art. You can always just delete me if I get annoying, right? I don’t know if stones are MORE beautiful than humans…but they are beautiful, especially in your shot.
Thank you, please never hold back your comments, guaranteed that I always want to hear(read) them.
