Marble

Granite.

Shale.

Granted.

Shall.

Mica.

Limestone.

Mice.

Lemonade.

Men make words.

Dirt forms the earth.

Humans are as humans does.

As beautiful as these stones are

When will we leave them behind

Before they harden

Everyone’s hearts?

Freedom is only to be won

Though it is so easy to think

We have been granted it.
