Rock Of Ages

 
Rocks don't move  
They're planted in the bush
Bake in the sun
shower in the rain
freeze in the snow
Steadfast and electric
in rolling thunder
as static discusses  
their location with
kenetic energy
 
Rock's don't move
They've allways been there
in the same place
Sure sometimes they roll
gain momentum
and smash the head  
of an unsuspecting hiker
 
I'd bet a dollar the hiker
stepped on the rock first
but timing is everything  
isn't it, just
 
Rock's don't move
They just wait
untill you walk in their  
direction
sit on them
or lie against them
 
Or take your break
discussing the view
Because the Rock  
never moves
Sits itself carefully  
in the same place  
waiting
 
and somtimes
hoping
