| footprints in the sand poem: No Footprints in the Sand Henry Kalalahilimoku Nalaielua, Sally-Jo Keala-o-Ānuenue Bowman, 2006 When Henry Nalaielua was diagnosed with Hansen's disease in 1936 and taken from his home and family, he began a journey of exile that led him to Kalaupapa—the remote settlement with the tragic history on the Hawaiian island of Moloka'i. During its century as a virtual prison, more than 8,000 people were exiled to Kalaupapa, until the introduction of sulfone drugs in the 1940s. Today fewer than 30 patients remain.This is Henry's story—an unforgettable memoir of the boy who grew to build a full and joyous life at Kalaupapa, and still calls it home today. No Footprints in the Sand is one of only a few memoirs ever shared with the public by a Kalaupapa patient. Its intimacy and candor make it, in the words of Pulitzer Prize-winning poet W.S. Merwin, “a rare and precious human document.” Nalaielua's story is an inspiring one; despite exile, physical challenges and the severing of family ties, he has faced life—as an artist, musician and historian—with courage, honesty, hope and humor. |

| footprints in the sand poem: Sand & Sea Ann D'Silva, 2019-01-07 People don’t believe in the unseen, anymore, Only in things they can see for sure. They say love and soulmates exist no more, Yet they breathe an unseen air to live for sure. Not every story begins in the here and now. Some transit through time never ending. If time were to cease, then some things would live forever… It began in the garden beneath which rivers flow, the place where the Sand and the Sea were born before creation ¬– the first soulmates, the two halves of one whole, the two parts of the eternity sign. A part Koli, East Indian Catholic, Hannah lives in Mumbai where the Sea always watches over her. Yet her dreams are haunted by a voice that calls to her through the breeze… True love walks beside her in another life, yet she is unable to find a way back in time. Riddled with disappointment and distressing heartbreak, she is hopelessly drawn to the path the Universe has laid before her feet. Drawn to Istanbul, she finds part of the puzzle in the Ezan of the Blue Mosque. Could the man from her dreams be real? What could an Indian woman and a Turkish Imam have in common? Will Hannah find what she searches for? Only those who believe will pass the test. Everyone has their own journey; some get on to the path and to some, the path comes calling. This is the tale of the Sand and the Sea, Hanging on the edge of wait, watch and let’s see. |
| footprints in the sand poem: Footprints on Sand Lyon Sprague De Camp, Catherine Crook De Camp, 1981 This collection of the de Camps' work, singly and in collaboration with each other, was assembled in honor of their appearance as joint Guests of Honor at X-Con, June 1981 in Milwaukee. It is a selection of short stories, verse, non-fiction, and excerpts drawn from almost every facet of the de Camps' diverse writings--fantasy, science fiction, children's stories; poems fabulous, romantic, and pragmatic; notes on prehistory, the evolution of weaponry, and the development of imaginative fiction, the origins of engineering; of Atlantis, Conan, and magic. This literary feast includes several new pieces, such as Catherine's Should Your Child Read Science Fiction? Others range from The Coming of the Engineers (LSdeC) to Windfall (CCdeC) to Eudoric's Unicorn (LSdeC). Also included are extended introductory remarks about Sprague and Catherine de Camp by Robert A. Heinlein, Lin Carter, Isaac Asimov, Poul Anderson, Andrew Offutt, Patricia Jackson, and George Scithers.

| footprints in the sand poem: Dissolve Sherwin Bitsui, 2019-06-18 “Bitsui’s poetry returns things to their basic elements and voice in a flowing language rife with illuminating images. A great reading experience for those who like serious and innovative poetry.” —Library Journal Drawing upon Navajo history and enduring tradition, Sherwin Bitsui leads us on a treacherous, otherworldly passage through the American Southwest. Fluidly shape-shifting and captured by language that functions like a moving camera, Dissolve is urban and rural, past and present in the haze of the reservation. Bitsui proves himself to be one of this century’s most haunting, raw, and uncompromising voices. From “(Untitled)”: . . . Jeweled with houseflies, leather rattles, foil-wrapped, ferment in beaked masks on the shores of evaporating lakes. This plot, now a hotel garden, its fountain gushing forth— the slashed wrists of the Colorado River. Sherwin Bitsui was raised in White Cone, Arizona, on the Navajo Reservation. He is the author of two other books of poetry, among them Flood Song, which won an American Book Award. He currently lives in Arizona where he has serves on the faculty of the Institute of American Indian Arts. |
| footprints in the sand poem: Nothing by Design Mary Jo Salter, 2013-09-17 A beautiful collection of verse––both light and dark, elegiac and affirmative––from one of our most admired poets. The title Nothing by Design is taken from Salter’s villanelle “Complaint for Absolute Divorce,” in which we’re asked to entertain the thought of a no-fault universe. The wary search for peace, personal and public, is a constant theme in poems as varied as “Our Friends the Enemy,” about the Christmas football match between German and British soldiers in 1914; “The Afterlife,” in which Egyptian tomb figurines labor to serve the dead; and “Voice of America,” where Salter returns to the Saint Petersburg of her exiled friend, the late Joseph Brodsky. A section of charming light verse serves as counterpoint to another series entitled “Bed of Letters,” in which Salter addresses the end of a long marriage. Artfully designed, with a highly intentional music, these poems movingly give form to the often unfathomable, yet very real, presence of nothingness and loss in our lives. |

| footprints in the sand poem: Poetry for the Planet Julia Kaylock, Denise O'Hagan, 2021-10-13 'Time in the palm of our hands.' -Peter Ramm What role might poetry have in saving our planet? It is becoming increasingly clear that we all need to contribute to ensure the survival of our planet; new narratives are urgently called for. Ecopoetry has become a genre within which poets put up a searching and at times brutally honest lens through which to consider climate change, loss of biodiversity, the pollution of our air and water, and environmentally damaging industries such as mining and deforestation. Poetry for the Planet showcases the work of one hundred poets from Australia and New Zealand. Despite an astonishing variety in style, poems are united in their plea to all of us to forge a new relationship with our fractured world, and move from an attitude of short-term exploitation to one of nourishment and sustainability. All proceeds from the sale of this book to be directed to the Australian Conservation Foundation. |

| footprints in the sand poem: Footsteps My Journey Kathy M Hampton, Kathy Bee, 2014-10-06 When Kathy Bee left her small town, Bloomingburg, Ohio, (a town of 500 people), she never realized that she would become a part of the legacy of one of her favorite poems, Footprints In The Sand. In 1979, after a performance at the country music nightclub the Palomino in North Hollywood, CA, Bee met Mary Stevenson Zangare. An invitation to a home cooked meal was offered by Mary...and eagerly accepted by Bee. During this dinner party, after Bee complimented Mary on her poems (which were hanging in frames and on plaques on her living room walls), Mary rewarded Bee with a large box full of Mary's hand-written and typed poems.One old poem stood out amongst the rest. It was a 1939 copy of Footprints In The Sand. On the back side of the poem was another poem that was signed Stevey. When Bee inquired about the Footprints poem, Mary stated that she was the author. Bee proceeded to find a credit card size copy of her own Footprints poem (which was signed Author Unknown) and began to question Mary...Sadly Marry shared the circumstances surrounding the poem and how it became anonymous. Believing Mary's story, Bee promised that she would help Mary to become “Author Known”.35 years later, Bee's story Footsteps Her Journey, will be shared in a new documentary, Footprints Miracles Secrets & Lies. With a little help from her friends, Bee hopes that her Indiegogo Crowd Funding Campaign will draw financial backers and more stories about Footprints and the impact the poem has left on other's lives.

| footprints in the sand poem: HAL...lelujah Jane Brown, 2025-05-19 God’s plan is not always our plan. I knew in 1997 the Lord laid it on my heart to write a book, but it was not until the pain of losing my first born that led me to finally surrender and begin this journey. Looking back at my journals it became clear in my mind that all this work that had been in a box for so many years was meant to come full circle. The gut wrenching, stab me in the heart pain prompted me to write and begin to heal. Years back I was to write a book, but it was not until the tragic death of my son, Hal, that it became crystal clear to me that it would be a story of a mother’s love, loss, and my faith through it all. |
| footprints in the sand poem: Bye-Bye Boobies Joyce Van Dyk, 2024-01-31 On that crisp October morning, as I stood on the deck of my home, gazing out at the serene lake, I heard a voice within me that would forever change my life. The words were simple yet profound, “Your results are positive, but don’t worry.” At that moment, I knew that the breast biopsy I had recently undergone would confirm what I already suspected - that I was embarking on my own journey of grief and healing. My life has been shaped by experiences of grief and loss, including the loss of my brother during high school, my mother shortly after college, and my father in my early 30s. As a former pastor and hospital chaplain, I had also helped countless others navigate this path, but now it was my turn to face it head-on. In Bye, Bye, Boobies, I share the story of my breast cancer journey— from mourning and grief to joy and celebration. This memoir offers a gift and guide to others whose lives are being invaded by breast cancer. It’s also a resource for those who will have to make a decision to say goodbye to parts of a body that have served them well. From throwing my own “Bye-Bye Boobies” party to discovering other creative and empowering ways to navigate cancer and grief, I hope this book provides useful tools, much-needed humor, and soulful guidance to help you on your own journey. |
