we all make ripples
unseen by us
in the pool of humanity,
and from those ripples
other lives are moved
by what we bring into
their paths through
the waters of life,
and each soul counts
in many ways towards
the betterment of others,
and in the end,
in the sands of time
there lie fossils
of what we've left behind,
and they are usually formed
in the shape of
many hearts joined
splash hard and
make waves so that
many will be moved
to the safe harbor
of fellowship.
