Legacy - Visitor's Poem

by Sarah L Sinden
(Hampshire in England)

Never allow the truth, the pure standing in life,
of your soul to be bought,
And don't argue - believe me -
not just with gold can it be sought.

For my son, your beliefs are the backbone to a joyous life
Sell half, nay a third or a tenth
and you will have nothing but strife.

So Darling, when the situation or
moment in time should spring to the fore
Remember it was your granddad, your grandma
and I who taught you, so bring it to the fore.

You are but one person, but one of integrity and strength
Go and make that change as your soul is intact,
it is full to the length.

Announce it, speak clearly, yes up, over and
through if there is such a crowd
And never forget 3 people on the sideline who
will be standing silent, yet full and proud.
