FABLE OF FOOTSTEPS
Through bramble and brush,
Slow or a rush,
Over gravel or stone,
Far from home,
Cloudy or rain,
When you were in pain,
I’ve been there,
Regardless of wear,
With you all the way,
Day after day.
When you were uninspired,
I never tired,
When you needed protection,
From infection,
When you needed support,
From that wart,
Mile after mile,
Pile after pile,
No matter dusk or dawn,
If you’re feeling stepped on,
Or under tread,
Step with me instead.
On one foot or two,
I’ll get you through,
Love you,
Your shoe
