Margaret Fishback-Powers is author of the world famous poem Footprints
The poem, Footprints, was originally entitled I Had a Dream, written on Thanksgiving weekend in 1964 at Echo Lake Camp in Kingston, Ontario. It was the weekend Paul Powers had proposed to the diminutive red-head, and the pair had strolled along the beach discussing the future and watching their footprints being washed away behind them as they walked.
"When we’re married," Paul had said to her at that time, "and we can’t help each other, the Lord will carry us and never leave us."
