Earlier today I picked up an odd shaped stone on the beach

I thought no more of it until our evening meal

When I considered its similarities to a tracer bullet

It was agreed that we would return it to the sea

Even though it was dark and raining outside

As it would not have been an agreeable companion

To have in the house and might have frightened Mr Moops

If it went off in our brightly coloured lounge
