Step Aside

Let the hollow of your first steps
Follow in your father's footsteps
Pen and footprints leave life's traces
Write and dance, no man erases
Where your heart will mark its path.
Recount the miles, then do the math...
The tracks he laid were still your guide
After you said, "Dad, step aside."
-(c) Colleen Lloyd
1997
For Alexander, firstborn son of my good friend and attorney John Donahue
RIP John
