LITTLE STONE
I held a little granite stone
in my hand
this morning.
It spread warmth and peace
told about all it met.
Vast oceans, sands and light;
All compressed so very tight.
Matters from ground and sea
all telling us, about silence
about stillness that speaks;
About love.
The little stone spread energy
through my hand and mind.

I’ve collected stones and shells since I was about ten years old and still have them here and there in the house. It feels good to hold them, but I’ve never consciously thought about why until now. Thank you for clarifying the “secret” power of stones.

I love your comment, JoAnna, it is filled with joy. I can see you as a girl, picking your special
shells and stones, just like I did. Collections that move with wherever I move.
Yes, those stones and shells really have a positive energy to transmit.

Thank you Deepa, how right you express it ‘ to connect with Mother Earth’s energy’.
I wonder if that really is behind that so many collect stones and shells. The nearness you feel.
