Poem written Monday, September 13, 1999 by Sally Haven
Dedicated to my step-father, Charles Loren Stone,
whom we will
all miss!
"Casting a Stone"
You started on the waters of life as a small STONE
you drifted with the ripples, gathering momentum
as each day of life occured.
Some days, the waters were very cool and calm,
many times, as the days of life got longer
the waters got a little rougher.
At the end of your journey, there was much turbulence
and finally, you were cast on the shore
A STONE no more traveling on the waters of life,
planted on the earth to travel no more!
BE ASSURED, YOU WERE LOVED!
