She used to give handwritten copies to friends in times of crisis or grief. She sold the poem to HarperCollins Canada in a book deal, along with her autobiographical account of how she wrote it, lost it and rediscovered it once the world had already been moved to hang it on refrigerators and church youth-room walls.

Zangare has named only two defendants, but others have also claimed authorship, including an Oregon man named Burrell Webb. He has said he wrote the poem in after his girlfriend dumped him. He has also said he paid for his own polygraph to prove it. Talk to us. The city initially appealed many alleged workplace violations.

She titled the poem "I Had a Dream. Her memoir, and a series of "Footprints" devotionals and prayer books, have been translated into several languages. The books have sold more than a half million copies in Canada alone. She's also licensed the poem to Hallmark Cards, and, through Harper Collins, to merchandisers around the world, including Lenox gifts.

How does Harper Collins respond to the Carolyn Cartys of the world? A friend of Stevenson's, Kathy B. Hampton, maintains a website that honors Stevenson as the author. Hampton also controlled Stevenson's poem, sold related products on her website and pursued "Footprints" licensing agreements until Stevenson's son, Basil Zangare, who maintains that Hampton took advantage of her mother in her final years, intervened. Zangare and Hampton finally resolved a six-year court battle last year.

Zangare now controls his mother's estate, and hopes to start licensing her version of the poem soon. None of this fazes Carty. She spends hours scouring the web for uses of "Footprints.

Her confusion led me to think Carty was a woman of advanced years-the more so since she'd purportedly been a crack poet more than 40 years ago.

I was wrong. In a later email, Carty explained she had been a "child prodigy, born on Albert Einstein's birthday," with an I. Now 47, she claims she penned "Footprints" in a year before Powers-when she was six. Carty composed "Footprints," she says, as she grieved the death of her grandfather. Lloyd Kelly, a friend of Powers' family, firmly believes that Powers wrote "Footprints.
