The Cairn

cairn (k??n)cairnn

1.  a mound of stones erected as a memorial or marker

Where the restless waters recede,
I walk among stones long hidden.
Lapped by countless waves, their faces worn smooth,
Belying the fires that made them.

Search with me, select the best.
Help me to arrange them,
Fit them and make them stand,
Because I want to remember this spot at the end of the world.

Lay one stone upon the other,
Assemble them in proper order.
Knit them together,
As You’ve knit my life to Yours.
