a Relic

A Relic.

The big boulder in the field speaks, it’s a sandstone and
has many holes, made by million of years of rain drops.
A funny old stone looks like a molar, big people used to
live here and dinosaurs were their domestic animals, like
cows and sheep are today.

I digress it is a stone and it has an echo when the wind
blows, sounds quite eerie, but I don’t think it has anything
deep to say other than it has been at the bottom of an
ancient sea and now is a common boulder in a field, so what
advice could it possible give other than time erases
everything, even names on tombs; that nothing matters and
life is incidental, who wants to know that?

So it is quite useless as a stone of wisdom, but come spring
when roses grow through its holes you would say it looked
magic and that, by itself, was an important message to be
given away for free; if it hasn’t been bought and moved into
a theme park by then.
