small fragmets covered the bottom

try picking them up,

but you can't

reach down for the grains of sand

watch them fall through

touches your feet but can't grasp it in your head

lift it up

it'll sink back down

wash down by the tide going farther away

replaced by copies

can't quiet tell the difference

they all look the same don't they?

feel the same as well

but then why do they all hold something different

they seem to tell stories

look under the dust and dirt

look closely ,

watch them shine

see them as what they used to be

not a small piece that lays below the surface
