In Your Shoes

This poem merely draw upon the act of empathy. In actuality, I was thinking of my daughter, age 19, who has walked a difficult recently, and my love for her throughout difficult times.

 

Placed aged feet in
Old puddles muddy
Used so many years
Around my soles putty
Soft-cushioned fears
Thick and thin

Each toe found home
In that viscous mess
Seeping through
'tween cracks confess
Your sins not new
Make fertile loam

Walked a million mile
Through discharged
Rage and love and fear
Blame mischarged
To other shoes held dear
And forgave you all your trek's beguile

For I've been with you all the while. . . .
