Historys Walk Poem by Matthew Holloway

Historys walk
~
I walk these paths
as known before
by others to have lived
heroes and villains
the great and the unknown
seasons pass by, always
now leaves beneath my feet
which once kept me in shade
paint a colourful walk
I walk amongst shadows
tales, stories and songs
and what do I add
if anything at all
is a question burning
I fear the answer
yet anticipate it well
these paths serve
a key to history
and to me
