Sidewalk Scribbles
CJ scrawls out
his initials
saying in black ink
this is his turf.
I dare not step
on the 4-letter word
engraved in stone
lest it ruin my day.
Some sweet child of God
writes, "GOD IS GOOD"
all over the park
in pink chalk.
Lovers carve
their lettered kisses
into hearts
set in stone
that make me smile;
love is such
a happy thing!
The dog left
thankfully only
footprints.
Mother Nature
dropped some leaves
to imprint themselves
upon the walk.
I haven't left my mark
yet
maybe I will tomorrow.
