a skipping stone



After millions of years
the Earth's crust formed
by tectonics and then erosion
this stone smoothed and rounded
in the flow of water
in a river bed.
This stone, though not perfect
will do just fine
tossed with some skill and force
will skip on the surface
of the pond four or five times
to my delight.
