Prompt 21: Happy Little Stone

A Road in Louveciennes by Auguste Renoir

How happy is the little stone
That rambles in the road alone,
And doesn’t care about careers,
And exigencies never fears;
Whose coat of elemental brown
A passing universe put on;
And independent as the sun,
Associates or glows alone,
Fulfilling absolute decree
In casual simplicity.

- Emily Dickinson, Happy Little Stone
