Following in my Father's Footsteps

Wisdom took the hand of a child
And she followed his footsteps
To the top of the world.
She learnt how small she was, and freedom breathed across her
Face, her hair danced, and her soul soared to the skies. She
Felt the ruffling of her imagination before life would give her
The wings to fly.
Bravery took her to the edge where she learnt her limits
She knew she could stand tall!
And Wisdom taught her to use his eyes to see the Kingdom
Stretched before her.
Furthur than her eyes could yet see.
And in her pocket he placed the gifts of patience and perseverance,
And gently touched her eyes with a balm of discernment.
She breathed deeply and peace and tranquillity filled her lungs
From his hand in hers she learnt the balance of strength
And gentleness.
Looking up at lofty Mountain peaks stretching to the sky
Humility entered her heart, she held tight to the feeling
Of awe and wonder, of majesty.
Then time cast a spell as belonging entered her soul and
She felt at one.
