Riverstone

I am a Riverstone
I am strong
I am tough

I have witnessed the summertime drought
I have endured the turbulent spring runoff
I have persevered through the fierce winter freezes

I will survive the flood

I am a Riverstone
I am resilient
I am determined 

Whatever the river flows at me
Whatever the storms that rage
I will persist

I am a Riverstone 

‘Though the river rages and batters me
It smooths my sharp edges
It makes me more beautiful

I am a Riverstone
 
I have been transformed by tribulations
I have been refined by adversity
I have been smoothed and polished

I will survive

I am a Riverstone
