Footprints in the Snow

Footprints in the Snow (5)

Footprints in the Snow (5)

Footprints in the Snow

A single set

A straight line

Across an open field

I slowly followed the

Footprints

step by step

Carefully

being sure not to 

disturb

or 

destroy them

I stopped at the end of the

open field

I lit a cigarette

blowing smoke rings into the still air

The 

Footprints 

stopped

As far as My eyes could see

the Snow was undisturbed

except for that single set of

Footprints

that now ended

I drew heavily on my cigarette

blowing smoke rings into the air.

I began to wonder

How could the Footprints end here?

I looked to the tree line

What was beyond?

I turned

prepared

to go back
