Poem: 'Stone'

If your heart is like a stone, you cannot move, can you?

If you have a will in your heart, you can move, can't you?

It is inconvenient if your body is like a stone, isn't it?

It is better if your body is not a stone, isn't it?

If your body is soft, does your heart become soft too?

Maybe I should do some stretching exercises.

There is a saying that even on a stone, one can endure for three years.

Perhaps it is good to try waiting.

Every stone has a different shape.

If you polish it, it becomes smooth.

The texture becomes pleasant too, doesn't it?

Though a rough texture isn't bad either.

I like stones.

They don't say a word even when kicked.

I wonder if there is such a person.

I wonder if I will ever become like that.

Maybe there are times when it is happy to have a heart of stone.

Thank you, stone.
