When you long to live in a safe, trusting and trustworthy, understanding, aware, relaxed and tender world my suggestion to you is ...
The Stone
I relocated a stone
In a river on Earth
The water runs over differently
The current of the river running
You can not stop it
The water will always find a way around
Sometimes maybe filled by snow and rain
Carries the river my pebble with her
To grind and polish it round and smooth
Lay it to rest in the shelter of the sea
I relocated a stone
In a river on Earth
Now I know and will never forget
I created the evidence of my existence
'Cause through the act of relocating
Of that one pebble
The current never will move in the same way ever
(with gratitude to Dutch artist and poet Bram Vermeulen)
