Story

The day we are born they are there 

The kicks, the crying, the laughter 

We take our first steps there 

The tumbles, the bumps, the smiles 

We run after everything we see there 

The sky, the stars, the world around 

We walk and enjoy our life there 

Holding hands, sharing glances, thinking 

We sit and rest there 

Remembering, sharing, thinking of what else there is 

We lay and they are there 

Bringing us back to where we came from 

Footprints tell our story everywhere
