Why Write? For me a personal legacy.
I just turned 70!
Come celebrate with me and read my little bit of humble poetry.
So surprised how that can be
To have come this far, so little legacy.
But I’m determined as you will see.
To build a proud and proper legacy.The past was fast.
The future a little slow
So far to go of Frost I think.
Miles to go before I sleep.And miles to go before I sleep.
But I too have promises to keep.
To myself and others,
my love is deep.I say to you out there
Do not despair.
Get off your butt
and out of your chair.Take action. Take care.
Love. And help others bear.
The burdens that we all can share.
Fill the void with words of hope.To better help all others cope.
With negativity this slippery slope.
A nod, a little smile.
To help all with that extra mile.We each must take that extra step
To keep promises made, promises kept.
To build that legacy, a promise I must keep.
And miles to go before I sleep.Come join with me in building legacy.
Each day the best we can.
Whether woman, whether man.
Wherever we are, whatever we can.No footsteps washed away with tide.
A legacy we make with pride.
Our loves, our family by our side.
Proud legacy, no need to hide.No need to wander.
No need to roam.
Your legacy
Should start at home.
I ask you friend - come write with me to build YOUR LEGACY!
