My Little Feet

I cannot walk a step further
Life has reached its destination
Old and weary, years in motion
All I can do now is look for heaven's star

Before I leave, I wish I could remember
The one thing that got me on the way
My first step with my little feet
In my memory given to me by my mother

I struggled with every step
As I stumbled each time, I rose again
Gave myself another chance
For there was so much to gain

I do recall however, that each time I fell
In this life of mine which was hell
I found the courage to rise above all
For my little feet helped me to be tall

As I close my eyes I feel lonely
Deep in my sorrow a sense so hollow
But each time I picture my little feet
I realise they walked towards heaven's gate

Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love

wonderful poem of inspiration, Daniel, I too enjoyed the metaphor and sometimes wonder how I get around with such tiny feet
