 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

Footsteps


Soft voice no longer waiting
dreams of happiness wrapped with silk
a journey starts with no real ending
one more footstep on what your father's built.
Searching out new ways of living
finding out what your life's about
so many questions… far more than answers
some will listen, but most men will shout.
So many lessons still to journey
a million miles left for you to walk
your gentle sweetness will be missed as always
a lesson lived is a lesson taught.
No more your soft voice will be waiting
your dreams and happiness another day
just remember I'll love you always…
with every footstep you take away.

Dedicated to parents whose children have grown
