Butt Prints In The Sand

Butt Prints in The Sand

A loving person lives in a loving world. A hostile person 
lives in a hostile world: everyone you meet is your mirror.
- Ken Keyes, Jr.

BUTT PRINTS IN THE SAND
Picked up off the Web, as Contributed by Robert Holland

One night I had a wondrous dream,
One set of footprints there was seen.
The footprints of the Goddess they were,
But mine were not along the shore.
But then some stranger prints appeared
and I asked Her, "What have we here?"
These prints are large and round and neat,
But much too big to be from feet.
"My child," She said in somber tones,
For miles I carried you alone.
I challenged you to walk in faith,
But you refused and made me wait."
"You would not learn, you would not grow,
The walk of faith, you would not know.
So I got tired, I got fed up.
And there I dropped you on your butt."
"Because in life, there comes a time
When one must fight, and one must climb,
When one must rise and take a stand,
Or leave their butt prints in the sand."
