Legacy 3/30/11


Mother,
What memories linger, what choices made
What legacy given, what childhood gave

What innocence squandered, what left was gaunt
What motherhood wasted, what’s left is haunt

What love was taken, what tenderness withheld
What knowledge refused, what query was quelled

What dreams were broken, what frozen was warm
What strength was wasted, what courage was torn

What trust was given, what conviction was sold
What words were spoken, what lies were told

What light was diminished, what faith has died
What is left now,
What Heaven denied,
Daughter
