“There is not enough darkness in all the world to put out the light of even one small candle”
Robert Alden
Small Stones#29
A flickering flame...
Candle light fills the room
Where once there was despair,
Now hope has found a way
And gained a hold there
When the darkness battles to stride in
Even a sliver of light will do...
Hold on to the light
Hold on to the light
Hold on to the light
What are small stones?
According to the originators of this wonderful exercise, a small stone is a short piece of writing (prose or poetry) that precisely captures a fully-engaged moment. The process of discovering small stones is as important as the finished product. Searching for small stones will encourage you to keep all your senses; - your eyes,(and ears, nose, mouth, fingers, feelings and mind) open.

Small Stones#29
Sometimes, all we see is the fog
The light seems ever distant
The dark seems ever present
But we must not give up
For the light will soon dawn
Hold on to the light
Hold on to the light
Hod on to the light...
Some Food for Thought: What are you struggling with in your life? Take a moment to contemplate what the light means to you? Love and Peace in 2013. I would love to hear from you:
