The Legacy

The Legacy

A Poem by Victor D. Lopez

Yesterday's gone, won't return,
Tomorrow may never come,
Live to the fullest today,
For the race is too soon run.

Seek neither fortune nor fame,
Do good work, they you will find,
See with your heart and you'll find,
Ample treasures all around.

The most precious things in life,
Are never those you can buy,
Love shared, honor served, lives touched,
The legacy we leave behind.
