If you find a rock...

If you find a rock ....
a rock that's not a skipping rock,
or a chalk rock, or a resting rock,
or a wishing rock -
one that's not a splashing rock,
or a sifting rock,
or a worry rock, or a hiding rock-
one that's not even a climbing rock,
or a fossil rock, or a walking rock --
but you like it anyway,
because it reminds you of a place,
or a feeling,
or someone important --
then you have found a memory rock,
and sometimes those are the best
rocks of all....... by Peggy Christian
So many great things have been happening in my life.
Great things that I never could have imagined.
I found a rock yesterday..
Nobody even noticed when I picked it up.
It is my memory rock..
It will remind me of this special time in my life.
