Grandad did you used to skim stones
off the pond? Yes the very same one.
We had a champion. His
went right across the other bank.
In life, he hit a log and sank.
Eric nestled in the tall grass.
James made waves and moved on, but Tom
reached the other side and slowly dried.
And Grandad, what about you? Well,
I'm still here aren't I, hoping to
be skimming stones with you, til your
son comes along and I dry up too.
