Two Small Pebbles Poem by Martin Mc Carthy
Two Small Pebbles
Two small pebbles washed up together
at the same time, in the same place,
after a whole tidewash of transformations;
two small pebbles named you and me.
We might call it a miracle,
or an accident - but, regardless,
the vastness of the sea still clings to us,
and we are close enough now to remember.
Closeness somehow activates the memory of vastness... a riddle only explicable by feeling.
2) And both have been polished to the smoothness of pebbles by the flow of time….great
What a pleasant poem! The coincidence of two strangers hitherto, coming together tethered to one-another by the bond of love… beautifully expressed. Loved it. To MyFavouritePoems
