Those Who Follow in These Footsteps


In my hand I hold a quill, Lush ideas it will spill, On canvas and paper to send a thrill, Of art and literature to instill, The minds of many, all who still Follow in these footsteps. In my hand I hold a sword, Of solemn grace and spoken word, With rhyme and reason strike a chord, Present ideas to be explored, Enlighten, brighten and reward, Those who follow in these footsteps. In my hand I grasp a shield, All my courage it shall yield, To spread the knowledge that I wield, Until the minds of all are healed, From lies and fictions once concealed, And once my wisdom has been revealed, I pass the torch to those who follow in these footsteps. Not another day goes by, Without me glancing at the sky, And letting my ideas fly, Words rushing out with no goodbye, Because They will always be inside, Beside And never, ever hide As they take along with them, worldwide, A message That I still follow in these footsteps.
