Pebbles


I found them wedged in

the bottom of my shoes.


Tumbling out of the scuffed bottom,

An ombre of pink and white

scattered on the floor.


A souvenir never

meant to come back.


Unassuming,

they don't show their age,

these remnants of ancient ruins.


They have been to the edges of

the Mediterranean Sea,

bathing in the ice and salt.


And to the top of a mountain,

in search of a missing Oracle

that was said to drive you insane.


They have seen so much,

these Stowaways in my soul(s).
