This poem means a lot to me, I first wrote it on a piece of card as it was the only thing I had to hand.  I now have a notepad and pencil with me all the time.  I still have the card but the words are very faded.

This is a poetic way to describe a life through feet ( so to speak) I was sitting with my baby son, watching him sleep and tenderly touching his tiny feet.

Tiny Feet

Tiny feet that mean so much

to hold gently and to care for

love and tenderly caress

encourage along life`s way

surround and then enclose

in protection, keep them safe

care for them and heal them

from danger and harms hurts

watch them grow and develop

show them independence

let them go without a tear

no more soft cotton wool

good and healthy. fit and strong

all the love to live life through.
