Legacy- by Noor Rahim
Legacy is a very important aspect in life; among us Homo sapiens
The word is a depiction of life’s attribute that has a very deep meaning
Dependent on one’s contribution to kith & kin; and to other fellow beings
With requirements to set moral standards, for others following
As a noun legacy means wealth/property left as an inheritance
And as an adjective, denoting a system that paves the way for betterment in living
But in our lives, what matters most is the adjective meaning of Legacy
For your wealth will be only measured in your contribution to the communities well being
For what you leave behind is the reflection of your own standards
This would be reflective of the folks under your wing
As one may see of the folks under the shadow of your ambiance
You example will surely show case your radiance that is ever lasting
It was in a movie that I heard a sequence
That when one leaves this world his/her legacy will be lingering
Through the good deeds and moral performance
But most importantly the knowledge he/she leaves behind, that benefits everyone in the offing
