Today must be Monday ---
another day
in the life of a stone
Was there a party
yesterday?
I don't seem to have known
I have been sitting here
in a spell
watching
throughout
the dark morning
I have been waiting
for a while.....
expecting...
the sun
finally coming!
I have been nestled here
for a long l o n g t i m e
built in the crest of this grassy green hill
under the arms of my buddy
the great grand old oak tree
---might have been forever---
in all kinds of moons and weather
I hear the hustle bustle
the hurry scurry
of humanity
somehow growing
l o u d e r L O U D E R ......
I don't have to pay any mind---
I don't have to go anywhere
somewhere
for whatever
reasons are there
I don't have to go to school ---
I always wonder how
it feels
to ride inside
that yellow bus
I don't have to go to work ---
I always wonder why
is it that
people must
why people must......?
I can sit here all day waiting
to watch the children play
when they come home from school
at the beginning
of the end of the day
It is another day
in the life of a stone
Yet I have been
eyewitness
to 'important' history ---
I always wonder why
nobody asks me......
The sun will make its flight
I will keep watch
throughout
the dark night
the end of
a day
in the life
of a stone.
Tomorrow is another
day.....

Hello IamVici,
This is simply beautiful. Looking at the stone arranged up a hill (or downhill, as the case maybe) telling
its story in a 'stoned' first-person POV.
