MY LEGACY
www.theponyxpress.org
My legacy consists of sunshine and rain,
bought by the joy and the pain.
Went from the struggle to gain,
respect when mentioning my name.
After the rain came the sunshine,
after the struggle and pain.
I found better times,
honor and pride brought from fights for our civil right.
Longer days with longer nights,
life in the limelight,
the highest heights.
Immortalized in my children’s eyes.
Baptized in the tears of loved ones left behind.
Smiles on faces brought by memories that cross your mind,
rewinding time
to feel the love from this heart of mine.
Don’t shed a tear, please don’t cry, just say a prayer for me.
I’m finally free, a rose that sprouted from the concrete
to the highest peak of prosperity.
Love, peace, and honor —
My legacy. | KS
