Each stalactite and stalagmite <br />is growing slowly dropp by drop. <br />Invisibly to human sight. <br />A process which will never stop. <br /> When they meet eventually <br />They will form a column of stone <br /> at which we gaze wonderingly. <br />Throughout long ages it has grown. <br />The wonders nature can produce <br /> are greater than the works of man <br />Which in their pride mankind must choose <br />to understand as best they can. <br />The secrets Mother Nature knows <br />producing stone that slowly grows. <br /> <br />11-Mar-08<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/patience-37/
