The footprint traces
Vanished by pounding
Waves. Was the tiredness
Of journey wasted without
Remains legacy. Though
Only footprints.
Was the walk wasted?
Along this coast,
Uncovered chapter-by-chapter
Story of the traveler
Imprinted million of traces;
But eventually, vanished.
We, the poets hope that the footprints we leave on the sands of time will remain indelible. But pounding waves come and wash them away! This is the grim reality! ! A powerful write with a nice analogy! !
Our footprints vanished by pounding wave our deeds were in vain gone un- printing /legacy we have but but blurred legacy, Fault with us Our legacy is with eternity but we are...Kon E commented about IInd war I thought about the Muslim whatever it may be something we are loosing thank you

I would like to translate this poem
How true that our footprints vanish as waves crash onto the shore, wiping them away as if on a slate. We are all here on earth, putting our footprints in the sand while we are here, yet like our lives we will one day be washed away just like our footprints were. We have no say in this matter it is just the way it is. I often wonder what legacy if any, I will leave behind. Very thought-provoking poem Ibnu. Thank you for sharing it. RoseAnn
