I wish the best for you and all... Let peace reside in each who walks this earth with tenderness, forgiveness, a new start - awakened, love to spare and real self-worth. Though my own breath has blown each grain of sand; each footprint left by me I cannot see. Alas, He picks me up in His strong arms - with tender hug and kiss, I have new feet! They are a toddler's, pudgy and unsteady, yet I can see the path they leave behind; reassured that He is always ready to breathe new Life - We may begin again! I do not think that each has had a thought of leaving imprints for this world to see, but I believe there comes a point in time when He says, "Walk, it's time for you to be!"

Reminds me of the "Footprints" poem. It has been my favorite for many years. A fun beach write/picture. Be blessed and write on..............

Another beautifully uplifting and encouraging poem that leaves positive imprints on this reader. You may not know the affect you have on another but I can assure you, your footprints always invite us to follow them to a joyful celebration. Wonderfully expressed my friend.
