Pretty Petty’s Poem of the Week
Hello
Pretty Pets, welcome to the “Pretty Petty’s Poem of the Week” issue. This will
be a weekly issue. We are Amanda D. Petty and Eric Brown, and we’re poets. This
will show off our diversion of our poetry. This is a part of “Pretty Petty Poetry”.

For this weekly poem, I want to give honor
to my physical therapist, Doug Shepherd. But, I call him, “The Miracle Worker”,
and I think of him as an angel. In this poem, you will see how hard, hard is an
understatement, bad I want to walk.
Doug, this IS for you.
Step by Step
By-Amanda
D. Petty
Step by step, a dream closed.
Dreaming of this,
Feeling the floor under my weak
legs.
Giving thanks to Heavenly Father
For this angel, who I call my PT.
Step by step, I walked.
Lucky, a miracle, maybe.
A true blessing, yes.
Step by step, wheelchair, no more.
A minute of true freedom,
Freedom of my handicapped.
Moving legs, zealous spirit,
Overcome with tears.
Step by step, I walked.
More Than Poetry: We
take “Pretty Petty Poetry” very, very seriously. Some people think poetry is
very “old fashioned”, boring, and not that interesting. We can understand. To
us, poetry is the true heart of a person. Amanda describes it as: lyrics without
any music.
