From His Legacy
I once knew a man in life
Whom wasn't always
So upbeat or kind
From all the things he'd lived and seen
But then there were those times
Something just clicked and struck a chord
That such beauty would flow out from his soul
By the songs he'd sing and play
That in the end of his days of living
By all the small acts of kindness he had done
Nothing else really mattered
But his legacy he'd left behind.
