OctPoWriMo 21 - Fingerprints

Today's prompt is fingerprints, handprints, or footprints. We were asked to think about where we have left our mark.

Fingerprints

What have I touched as I walk through this world?
What has my life affected?
How many wonderful things unheard
I have never suspected?

When my time on this earth is done
I want to see them all:
The good and the bad, every one,
The big and even the small.

  1. I don't know why but every time I read your work, I am reminded strongly of Margaret E. Sangster's poems. Just wonderful.
