One Stone Is a Fortress
A stone is sitting in solitude underwater while others play
Solitude is gainful, a finding of one’s inner qualities
Those qualities surface that may have been unclaimed
It is then that the integral source of contentment will exceed
beyond defeat or discouragement and surface in the darkest of times .
The stone will watch while others play
but when it becomes dark the stone will prevail.
That stone has a fortress of amour in the event of adversities
to which it can become steadfast and not be disturbed by encounters.
the water will roll over the stone while others will wash away.
