What are small stones?

What are Small Stones?

Small stones are an observed moment,
written down. My small stones were initially inspired by the River of Stones
project each January, which sees hundreds of people observing a moment or
experience in their day and writing it down for the month. They can then be
shared on blogs, Facebook, Twitter or just written in a notebook, on a pebble,
the loo roll... To find out more about the flow of this simple movement to bring
more presence and awareness into our lives, check out the following link: http://www.writingourwayhome.com/p/small-stones.html

Silence!

Chairs squeaking, throats clearing, sneezes,
urgent scratch of pens racing across paper.
Invigilators whispering, electric light humming,
bell ringing and shoes scuffling past outside.
Pages turning, loud clatter of a ruler
dropped to the floor, stifled giggles.
Listening to how full of sound, this silence!
