“The Stone” by V G Sathve

The underestimated stone you threw away in the river is now the fort defending your town.

I write micro-poems to capture tiny, often overlooked moments of life, turning ordinary experiences into reflective and poetic snapshots. I am drawn to the interplay of memory, nature, and human emotion, and I enjoy blending playful imagination with emotional depth in compact forms.
