My Hiker's toes

FUN.INTENTIONAL.TOGETHER.

These feet were made for hiking

My hiker’s toes to the naked eye

look bruised, battered and torn

Callused by the relentless trails

that they have traveled upon

They have bled and broke

and ached in pain

Protected by the boots that they were in

They have texture and depth

and yes, lost a few nails

but the strength they provide

overwhelmingly prevail

Yet still with obedience

relentlessly they obey,

To the miles ahead of them

required of that day

My hiker’s toes though not a pretty sight

Have a simple, sweet melodic tale

of fighting the good fight

Strong and resilient and beautifully worn

They patiently wait to be where they belong

Back in their place where boots meet the trail

Collecting more stories of a life walked out well
