Imprints

Jennifer Bolton

My footprints have Always appeared differently in the sand.
Never having the same weight or positioning.
Some days I firmly planted my feet
leaving a defined print.
Other days my footprints would not even be present
the imprint disappearing immediately
like the sand had never been walked.

The prints
my life
my experiences.

Showing when I am Strong
showing when I am weak.

I met a Friend along the way,
He has proven to be my lifesaver.
When I stumbled in the tide
He picked me up
He carried me through the rough
And terrible times.

When I was very ill
losing my best friend.

He never left my side.

When I got my college diploma
getting married.

He never left my side.

Always listening
Always loving
Always caring.

He never left my side.
