I.
Dozens of feet
Pounded on the pavement.
The pebble was the only thing
Not moving.

II.
The gardener
Cleared all the weeds
From the earth,
But didn’t touch the pebbles.

III.
The cracked pebble behaved
Just like all the other pebbles.

IV.
The boy picked up the pebble
And chucked it far into the meadow,
Where it waited for someone else
To pick it up.

V.
To avoid being eaten,
The caterpillar hid
Under a pebble.

VI.
The cause of the woman’s agony
Was a pebble in her shoe.

VII.
There are many more differences
Between the blue pebble
And the gray pebble
Than just their color.

VIII.
Each of the million pebbles
Eternally glued together
Helped to form the path.

IX.
When the man sees the pebble,
He sees a small rock.
When the ant see the pebble,
He sees a boulder.

X.
When the archaeologist pulled
Yet another pebble from the earth,
He frowned, and tossed it into the pile
Of other discarded pebbles.

XI.
Outside of the window,
The murky fog blanketed the air.
All that could be seen
Was a pebble in the grass.

XII.
There is absolutely nothing
That can intimidate a pebble.

XIII.
A single pebble is almost unnoticeable,
But a mountain of pebbles
Has unbearable weight.
