A Rolling Stone Gathers No Moss
February 6, 2024
Written by Susannah Schools from Russell Sage College — Troy — NY
But maybe it gathers other things.
Perhaps a bit of dirt clings for the ride
And new bacteria find a home.
Maybe moss is left,
But a splash of water is right
There to clean the rock.
Cool and quenched
And ready to gather.
Petrified and born alive.
For Jesus Written by Jibril (Giovanni) Rose (Foyles Young Poet of the Year, 2021)
