Fauxku Choo Choo (the play's the thing)

[rayheinrich]

My footprints
smaller now - 
summer sand

Falling rain
Wipe this slate clean

Good poem... though I must note it doesn't follow this thread's guidelines.
Fauxku Choo Choo guidelines:

1. Any TINY poem of 1 to 4 lines (or a 5 line limerick) - does not have to be haiku-like.
2. Poem includes 2 significant words from the preceding one.
       (Tense and plurality may be changed -- homonyms, other inventive wordplay, is winked at.)
3. Poem reflects some aspect of the previous poem (encouraged but not obligatory).

also:
4. Copy last poem and repeat it above your poem in your own post.
5. It's OK to play with yourself. (Post replies to you own poem.)
6. If the previous poem doesn't fit the guidelines:
       Either mention this politely, or continue on as if nothing happened,
