Legacy Poem by Barry Middleton

Legacy

Rating: 4.8


the rivers were a legacy
they ran with adventure

to ride the river was a step
on the journey to eternity

the hills were a legacy
huge and stronger than time

they met my every need
they fired my imagination

the ancestors were a legacy
known only in stories

they were strong as the hills
they were wild as the rivers

the family was a legacy
raising another generation

growing hope like a prayer
to mark the path to home
