Poet's Corner: "A Pocket of Stones"

A pocket full of stones.
A pocket full of chrysanthemum stones.
Blessing the inner seam of the pocket,
While avoiding tumbling through the hole.

This pocket full of stones
Jingles like Christmas bells or
Catchy commercial tunes:

I'm loving it.
Have it your way.
Where's the beef?
In the five dollar footlong.


All available to own for a pocketful of stones.

By A. Jarrell Hayes
