Footprints in the Snow (Raquel)
May 30, 2005 by Raquel
Usually I think poetry should rhyme. Usually the poems that I write aren’t very good.
This is an exception to the first rule. I leave it to your judgment whether it’s an exception to the second.
It always seemed a waste
walking through the snow
leaving footprints
marring the unbroken sheet.
But now I walk with a friend
with laughter or tears
leaving footprints
side by side in the snow.
