Just as the tide ebbs and flows, so too does the collection of stones on the seashore change. Oftentimes, the voice of the stones is drowned out by the sound of the sea but high up on the shoreline they call out to those who seek inspiration.
Two stones spoke to me yesterday as I walked along Annestown Beach. They only needed to say two words to draw me in and tickle my imagination.
Yes, this is what they said to me:
LOVE WRITING
This so lyrical , yes they are whispering to me too!
Glad it resonates with you, Willow.
They truly are!
I too collect favorite rocks on our visits to the shore..Some remind me of a fancy chocolates..with striping going around the rock..some are dark and some look like carmel (couldn’t be that I have a sweet tooth..ha). some are intriguing with their colors..some look like a tweed effect, while others are fine enough for a paperweight because of their unusal look. I also collect bits of drift wood, shells, and beach glass..if it beckons to me I pick it up..always looking for the treasure…
Joni, sounds like we have lots in common. I love the way your craft work is underpins your response. We’ll skip over the sweet tooth bit, shall we?
Hi, I have nominated you for a Liebster Award at cassidyslangscam@wordpress.com. If you’re unfamiliar with the concept you can check it out there. No offence if you decide not to continue the chain!
Thanks very much for nominating me. I’m not really an awards person but you’d never know!
I quite enjoyed doing the questions but don’t feel under any obligation! 🙂
You wouldn’t believe how many rocks I have in the garden and in the house. Who says there is no rock whisperers.
Oh, I would believe it and I also believe in ‘rock whisperers.’
🙂
If you squint your eyes a bit, one of them looks like it has a heart outlined on it. 🙂
So true and the other has a line just begging to be written on.
The stone message is perfectly clear!
I have a flat stone next to my desk. It’s a sand one with chalk patterns on it that look like confetti. It fits exactly in my palm, as if it was carved by the waves especially for me. It’s good to hold during moments of reflection or during short periods of writer’s block.
Your stone sounds perfect, Sarah
