Walking in the footsteps of my brother
Fast cadence
Wide strides
I stumble and run
He glides
Effortlessly
Setting a pace he knows I can never attain
Yet
Looking back
In admiration?
Or is that fear?
Yelling at me to hurry up
He stops
Smiles
Allowing me to catch up…
Until
Once more
I’m walking in the footsteps of my brother
