Calipers and Sewing Needles

The crumbling stones
against the Canyon walls
they restore my thoughts
they once were mighty large
ingenious stones 
now they are crumbled
crumbled into the earth
these stones shall crumble
to nuruse the grounds
seeds shall sprout from 
these stoney areas
to feed the needs of many


her broken oboe caused her
to be flustered
she found sanctuary in the canyon
there she and her friends would rest
camping for days
in nature
they bought exspensive groceries
and ate like royality in the shadows of the
canyons walls.
more than thrity of these people played their instruments
while those who wished to capture these happens on film.

her pretty mini shirt
tore on the hinge which was broken
it snagged and fraid the seam
she had no needel to fix it
all was lost so it seemed
suddenly her freind told her
I have a pin
might you allow me to pin your hem
she smiled and said go ahead
and he fixed it with his pin
all was great and chummy
she kissed him on the cheek
she said she had some
dessert lefted from dinner
he ould come over
and eat and retreive his pin
he came over to have dessert
and took his sewing pin
she kissed him and said
I love you
that's ho their togetherness beganned
