Echos of My Mind

Tennis shoe threads mark
A path in the fresh trail dirt
Climbing to where the air thins

A grave stone is placed
Where grand forefathers once stepped
History in a hillside

Apex reached, voice booms
Hello.o.o.o.o.o
I was here, ere, ere, ere, ere

Twisting was cool, with a girl named Jewel, make no mistake, she could bake a cake, but she was no fool, slim and proper, sweet as a candy wrapper, She went to school,no way to stop her! This is the end, of this poet's gen, my friend! God bless

We all leave a mark, a trace of history in our wake as we pass through life. Love the way you used the "echo" to evoke this sense of lasting impact. Profound writing!
