A Stone Throw

 

I dropped a stone into the water

and watched it gently sink

as it fell towards the bottom

I found a moment to think.

In contemplating each wave it left

reflecting the open sky

I saw clouds and birds and things

and watched them float on by.

But then I felt a teardrop

that otherwise would have been lost

it spawned a thoughtful memory

as I wagered out the cost.

I've often stopped to wonder

at times to reason why

but I can't seem to shake the feeling

that you were the tear I cried.
