Snowy Footprints

 I left these footprints in the snow
on a journey they might go
to a vast undiscovered land
or to only an old forgotten box of sand
to a tiny little house built in a tree
or to the top of a mountain with a view you must see
to a dark cave where a monster lies within
or an old factory where they made only products of tin
to a castle built once upon a time
where true love was the only crime
full of fairytales and happily ever afters
and from miles away all you hear is laughter
or maybe to a ghost filled abandoned house
too scary even for a little mouse
to a land where magical dragons puff out deadly fire
and you can try to run but they never tire
to a remote island with a deserted beach
where survival is just out of your reach
but during the day the sun shines bright
and by night, the campfire is your only light
I turned around to see where they led
while imagining all these places in my head
thinking to all these places my prints could go
but they only led to my beautiful home
