My Legacy

Contributed by kandis on Tuesday, 21st June 2005 @ 11:15:44 AM in AEST
Topic: InspirationalPoems

When I think about my legacy,
And all that it entails,
It makes me humble deep within,
For I fear I’m going to fail.
Fail to be a good example,
In the roles of life I play,
Loved ones and strangers just alike,
I want them to be able to say:
That I did the things I should have done,
I never compromised,
I loved the Lord with all my heart,
I sought favor in His eyes.
I stood up for what I believed in,
Even when I felt like giving up,
I had the faith to keep pressing on,
I showed others about God’s love.
I expressed the joy that filled my soul,
Laughing even in the trials,
I wasn’t afraid to shed a tear,
As I traveled my hardest miles.
I was the kind of wife,
The Lord would have me to be,
And through the trials we faced together,
To my husband, I lived faithfully.
I was the kind of mother,
That when push came to shove,
That my children always knew,
There was for them an unconditional love.
I was the kind of daughter,
Of which my parents could be proud,
I stayed true to what they taught,
Instead of following the crowd.
I was the kind of sister,
With always an ear to lend,
We were partners for life,
And best friends till the end.
I was the kind of Christian,
To others all around,
I was known as a prayer warrior,
With God’s love shining down.
My legacy is important,
This one thing I will leave behind,
I will try my best to fulfill it,
With body, soul, and mind.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
