Legacy II

The subtle shift of what we leave,
more than possessions, more than fame.
The ripple effect of noble deeds,
a quiet influence, a lasting grace.
It’s the courage we instill in youth,
the empathy we learn to share.
The integrity we strive to uphold,
the kindness we extend to strangers.
A harvest sown, not for our own gain,
but for the betterment of all who follow.
The echo of a well-lived life,
a quiet strength that will not fade,
a gentle nudge towards the good,
a whispered hope for brighter days.
