PEBBLE IN THE RIVER


Oh shinning pebble in the river bed


Who is it who shapes thee?  


Who is it who polishes your rounded curves!


A silent observer!  So still you seem!


But to the flowing water you smoothly yield


Does the vastness of the river still hold traces of your colour?


Does the freshness of the water still hold the taste of your mineral breath?


Shaped by the eddies of adversity; but not carried away by the currents of passion


Still yet changing; silent yet yielding!


Holding on to nothing; but letting all things flow


Oh mighty pebble, shining in the river bed!


Yielding in form; but unyielding in principle!


How mighty is thy endurance!
