Lazarus Walk

Boots in the closet; I wait for them to walk so I can follow. Wallet in my drawer; he needs his license, money, not a lot, t-shirt, pair of pants, running shoes, his watch, binoculars, field guide, floppy hat. I won’t forget. I’m ready, boots; lead me; it’s not too late; it’s not. ©Kathryn Collins June 14, 2007

Kathy This poem holds so much ever hope in it...and so in your Boots I trust :) May our boots always lead us well. GREAT hope giving write. How the soul needs to have little whispers of "it is not too late" no matter how illogical hope sometimes seems Love to you Ingrid
