Stories from an eclectic mind
Romance, Fantasy and random short stories
Ode to Sandstone
People love their granites
And marble countertops
They ooh and ah right over
The pretty coloured rocks.
Volcanic formations
Get more than they deserve
They’re hard and they tessalate
It’s more than I can bear.
It’s the humble sandstone
With layers of darker sand
That capture my attention
Sedimentary I stand.
This rock is soft and erodes
Quite easily you see
But the bedding planes and contours
Always inspire me.
The colours are more earthy
Muted and clear to see
I love the humble sandstone
Not the sparkly.
