The Collected Poems of Maud Pie

by Titanium Dragon


Geology

Rocks
Don't last forever.
They change.

Some rocks
Become soil.
Other rocks
Are pushed underground
And come back
As new types of rock.
Either way
The original rock
Is gone
For good.

Rocks
Don't come back
The way they were.
But we can learn
From what they were
Before they were
What they are
Now.

This is
Geology.
