Legacy of Love

Legacy of Love

A Poem by Michael Alexander
"

Describing the importance of those who are closest to us in our lives. Don't forget to cherish each moment with those you love.

"

Love can be a wondrous thing.

Smiling, Dancing, Singing.

 

Don’t forget this feeling.

Time can cause emotional depleting.

 

We often lose ourselves-

Getting caught up with the trivial.

 

But our true loves never leave.

Sturdy, Caring, Convivial. 

 

It is said that if you love something let it go.

Please use caution with this advice of woe.

 

Cherish those who are closest to you.

We only have but a brief moment to share.

 

For if I did not get to know you at all? 

That’s just a thought I could not bare.
