Skipping Stone

Throw me onto the lake.
Watch how I walk the water
all the way to the center,
moving the fish out of the way.

Awe at the waves I make,
heed the words; I'm the author.
Think I'll sink? Never.
I'll skip away.

Open mouths in my wake,
I refuse to falter.
Keep your eyes on my endeavor,
there will be no replays.
