My Pebble

At some point everyday everyone goes to sleep, but not me. Everyday at some point I close my eyes and see things beyond my imagination. Some say I'm dreaming but I know otherwise.

In these so called "dreams" I picture a little small pebble with many rainbow colored swirls.yes, there are other pebbles in this puddle where I found this unique little one. This pebble was different, it caught my eye for it sparkled under the moonlight's reflection against the clear blue water. I awaken this dream with thought about the other pebbles. I believe that those pebbles once had color but they weren't given a chance to sparkle like the rainbow one.

The rainbow pebble proved to me that one can make a difference and I'm sure it will do the same for others. Although I know that this pebble is far from being a rock, this pebble stands as strong as a one. I believe this pebble has hope and maybe just maybe you might think so too , and you will possibly save it a spot in the lake where after a few years eventually it will find its way to the ocean.

Later, someone will have a similar dream and soon my pebble will be replaced.
