Sidewalk Revelation
by Maralee Gerke
copyright 07-30-2001


Age Rating: 18 to 127

 
I saw
An imprinted foot
Near a new fire hydrant
On the sidewalk.
The brave testament of a passerby,
Leaving his impression on the world.

The wet cement an invitation to immortality.
A quick glance around-
The street fortuitiously empty.
The tennis-shoed foot pressed down firmly.
Completed, the print distinct and final.

That print stared up at me.
"I'm here to stay",it seemed to say.
I wished that it was my foot emblazoned there.
That anonymous step attaining,
What I still strive for.

Immortality.. what we all strive for in one way or another... some through their writings, some through their works...

This is great, Maralee!
That imprint we all hope for...you make it very real....and still attainable....
Well done!
