Deer Prints In the Snow

No one else would notice 
The little things he saw 
An old letter 
Or the romance books 
He refused to throw away 
It was these things 
Kept as reminders 
To an old heart 
From a young time 
Sort of like waking up 
On a frosty 
Snow filled morning 
You don’t have to see them 
To know they were here 
Just look on the ground 
And see the deer prints 
In the snow

An imaginative write. Nicely thought out and put down on paper.
