"The rug has been pulled from under me. I am tumbling in a foreign life, grasping for something that will help this make sense"

Faye Emily's little feet

Baby Footprints

These are my tiny footprints, so perfect and so small.
These tiny footprints, never touched the ground at all.

Not one tiny footprint, for now I have my wings.
These tiny footprints were meant for other things.

You will hear my tiny footprints, in the patter of the rain.
Gentle drops like angel tears, of joy and not from pain.

You will see my tiny footprints, in each butterfly's lazy dance.
I'll let you know I'm with you, if you give me just a chance.

You will see my tiny footprints, in the rustle of the leaves.
I will whisper names into the wind, and call each one that grieves.

Most of all, these tiny footprints, are found in Mummy's heart
Because even though I'm gone now, we'll never truly part."

Emma. February 2003.
