LegacyA Poem by Sami KhalilLeave a legacy of life and transcend death. Legacy is more important than self-preservation. A life and philosophy write.Legacy/…………………By sami Khalil (leave a legacy of life and transcend death) The poem: Time moves in tireless steps, In sequels of eulogy, faceless,
As it chases the reign of kings
and queens. You become what you believe…in
its chasms. For to each, their own answers; Changing old ways, birthing new
ones, Where fate is the auctioneer And you are the bidders and plaudits, Collating your destiny. To each, their praises and
broken hearts, In the art of acceptances and
rejections; Tokens of our surrendering. To each, their imaginings and befalling’s, Swords and shields, as they
lurk in figurative Speech and reality, perusing
life and death. To each, those mummies of the
past And museums of the future, For there is a magic behind
every mystery And legacy, leaning on the
shoulders Of darkness and the shadows of
hope, Until the time and place of awakening. For upon an awakening, things
transcend The everlasting emptiness,
scanning the mechanics Of nothingness, stretching visions
into idealistic shuffles. And the more we gaze, the more
they do reveal. To each, are shapes of
butterflies and clouds? In the thresholds of remembrances. Softly, they call…The infants of poetry and thinkers! © 2014 Sami KhalilFeatured Review
