This is rather lovely.

“the wet cement smell of beginnings” is a beautiful phrase with a great sound to it.

I think the second line is fantastic as well – after the actual steps of the first line, all neatly divided and even, it has the motion of air, drifting forward.

I think this is the first poem I’ve rated on Ficly!

Why thank you! :D

i like this poem a lot. it makes me long to run away and start fresh.
