I Threw The Last Stone

carissimi on Jul 26, 2010

Ripples.

i threw the last stone

into the water it went

alone, but not alone

and the messages sent

the ripples started slowly

and they grew and spread

i smiled with joy and happiness

with happy tears on my face

you may have thrown the first

the second and the third

but i threw the last stone

as the ripples spread out

i turned and walk away

so you can keep throwing stones

but i already walked away

Yes, but I observe no one has asked the question of what the stone you threw represented. Might it have been the last stone which bestow unfair judgements against ones fellows of humaity?
