Foot Prints in the Snow


I saw them quietly
marking the spot
where someone
or
something walked
back and forth
forth and back
in the quiet of the snow.
I'm not really sure
whether
human
or
not.
It walked
in the snow
in the melting
snow
back and forth
forth and back
I wonder
why
I wonder
what
I wonder
who
Might have been human
So close to the house
I'm not really sure.
Frozen in time
Frozen in place
Until the air warmed up
and
Melted the prints
walking back and forth
and
forth and back
and
We will never know.
