journey

I looked up at the clouds
and one was smiling back at me

I walked near by a tree
and it reached down to embrace me

I walked along a sandy beach
and the soft cool sand soothed my feet

I jumped into the ocean
and it completely refreshed me

I looked up at the sunset
and what I saw made my heart ache

footprints

what footprints shall I leave behind?
compareth me not to
Buddah’s knowledge
Confucious’ patience
da Vinci’s prodigiousness
Gandhi’s simplicity
Jesus’ purity
Longfellow’s prose
Michelangelo’s artistry
Mother Teresa’s love
Shakespeare’s drama
Thoreau’s enlightenment
yet, I drink the water that quenched their thirst
and, breathe the air that gave them life
and, laid footfall on the dust of this earth
yet, on a path uniquely my own.
