Exceptional They've become a touchpoint for me... Tiny Footprints by Y. M. Roger Write a Kyrielle writing prompt entry

When but a toddler in the yard You’d watch the squirr'ls and rabbits play And frowned when all they left you were Tiny footprints leading away   And then the week that you turned five Your mice escaped on your birthday You cried when all we found there were Tiny footprints leading away   The year the darkness reared its head We'd skip down the clinic hallway 'Cuz painted there just for fun were Tiny footprints leading away   We tried, my love, you fought so hard I’ll hold you once again, I pray Look, there, with the angels' are your Tiny footprints leading away   Writing Prompt A kyrielle is made of quatrains (four lines) that rhyme (any rhyme scheme can be used). Each stanza (quatrain) has a line that repeats from the previous stanza. That line is usually the last line in the stanza, but it does not have to be. Each line is made up of eight syllables. There is no limit to the number of stanzas. A Kyrielle is usually made up of three or more stanzas. For this prompt, a minimum of three stanzas is required.
