Thank you for that, Kiya - it's not many brave the wilds of my portfolio to discover my little 8-line poems, so it's wonderful to have some feedback on them. Much appreciated!
Wonderful poem that links footprints to bits and pieces of our memories over the years.
As we get older, we do leave a mark behind - footprints if you will - and even as they fade away, they'll always linger and be a reminder of what we once were.
Thanks for sharing this poignant piece with us, and keep on writing!
Are we talking history,
the savage hordes at the gates of Rome,
Napoleon in Egypt,
the Wright brothers in Kitty Hawk,
Prometheus stealing fire,
Krakatoa losing its temper,
or are you asking
who broke the window yesterday?
