David Koehn – Some Lines Written with Invisible Ink


David Koehn

Some Lines Written with Invisible Ink


 1.  Two children enter a rock garden. They exit alone.

 2.  A chiseler: a child, one who cuts stone.

 6.  The growth of stone is diminishing.

 7.  There are millions of fish bones in every grain of sand.

 8.  How many fish are in a stained glass window?

10.  Heaven is far away.
