About a rock, <br />not a pebble, not a stone, <br />but about a rock, <br />is it shale with dead crustations, <br />is it pumice made from lava plums, <br />is it sedimentary in it's formation, <br />or compressed sand from the oceans or seas, <br />these are question not just for you or me, <br />was it once a meteorite that came down from the heavens, <br />or was it once a stalactite or stalagmite, <br />from what I see, it is a stone, <br />all I know, that rock will out live me.<br /><br />Walter C.
