That which is rarer than anything exposed on a beach Gives me meaning and purpose that few of us reach A pebble, a single pebble now kept in my pocket I will keep safe inside this special keepsake locket And will wear it around my neck for my protection And hold on to your substance in my life once more That which once was part of something much grander Gives me the courage to ask where are you from No more wait for incessant makes ups or breakups Washed smooth by the rolling tides still breaking in Worn out and perhaps weary from such long ago origins Now all the drama of a past has gone by and been forgotten Forever now I behold its value be held with sacred love Glowing with each sunrise in such a warm surprise Could it have taken me any longer to yet surmise All that you have given back to me for that I will keep safe All that you have given to me and now I will give back I will always be, yes my love, I will always be here for you

Yankee4you ~ What a profoundly beautiful expression of words AND PERHAPS real feelings.?!!
Hopefully ~ in actuality ~ one of your pockets is safely holding your special pebble.
Yankee this was a very creative poem, enjoyed it very much. Thoughts written here and valued in a pebble comes a long way. Our memories are always safe in our minds and flourish out elegantly in words. Thanks for sharing. SM
