A stampede, a herd, a huge wave
went before us, a herd of footprints
in the new-fallen, wet, thick snow
some overlapping, some pristine
in the dense slush
Footprints of eager children
walking, running, stomping to school
for another day of learning,
right around the corner from home
a wave of children, crashing on the gates
bringing giggles and bags
into the schoolhouse doors
