One foot

        One foot

In front

           of

               the Other,

-

       overcoming
inertia.

-   

       Breathe in,

two-three-four

       footsteps

                harnessing

                     gravity.

-

        August glows
through

       leaves as

                ocean

                         glass.

-

       Sycamore shudders

palms

         fluttering

                    in symphony.

-

        Columned

sidewalk

        of rose trees

                       face 

                             off,

-

        heady but

scentless

       beyond

             a foot

                  away.

-

        Slingshot

around

        the obstacle

              by your side.

-

       Accellerate

in joy

       on a new

               trajectory,

-
       one foot
in front
       of the  Other.
