PEBBLES ON THE BEACH

The frozen play of children embodies whispers of purpose.  Childhood memories, slippery and nostalgic, infuse perceptions of the children's concentrated play or a calling to stone play,  to the gathering, stacking, fumbling, skipping and rubbing of sun-bleached pebbles that represents a timeless gesture of sensual connection to the shore.
