Your Footsteps

by

Diane Klammer

for Carole & Richard

Everywhere your footsteps
Chose to gently tread
On the pathways of America
Have spread your love

From where the eastern sun shines on
The trails of the Flatirons at dawn
To where the beach hits the sand
On a Pacific coastline
Lighting it up with luminescence
Your presence will be missed

You two inspire
Your laughter makes a chorus
With that of your many friends
It blends in with the wind
Whistles through the pines
Sounds sweeter than the rush
Of a nearby river
The call of a red tailed hawk

You will take the love and longing
Of all your friends
Back to England
It will grace your steps
The traces of American soil
American customs
American love
Will color everything you do

Colorado will call out to you
Come back come back
We are not done with you yet
Our good times are not over
We need more time to visit
We need more time for hiking
We need more time for dancing
You live here in our hearts

Our memories will sprout wings
They will chase after you
We will travel across the miles to find you
And will bring you home
