He can't seem to understand.
he sits and wonders why.
He's sensitive, he's kind
he's that sort of man,
He kneels and lets out a sigh.

The world around him is so cruel,
un-worthy, and so tough.
But all he wants is a chance
to be a diamond in the rough.

He's made some wrong turns in life,
and is willing to pay the price.
But would like nothing more than
a second start in life.

He tries and tries so very hard
to take to heart what is right.
And sits down to read a poem
and ponders it thru the night.

"Footprints" is what the poem is named
and is placed and sealed and framed.
It talks of some sand, a man, and
a single set of prints.

It's true he set aside the time
to ponder, re-think, and pray
To ask his heavenly Father for help
to carry him along the way!
