Cold grey marble <br /> Soldiers erect, <br /> displaying <br /> their <br /> etches. <br /> Black withered roses <br /> bow heads, <br /> praying in <br /> silence. <br /> Embedded footprints <br /> crackling frost, <br /> leaving <br /> powdered <br /> dust.<br /><br />Barbara Moyer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/footprints-3/
