Lingering

Inanimate things talk. Dead things
tell stories. You have to be patient
to hear them. Even stones need
companionship, their smooth faces
touching. And water, how it clings
together like roots dig into soil or
that first kiss lingering a minute more.

The rock said to the tree "I've seen your kind come and go."
