Legacy
I’ve never fathered children
To say or call my own
Though
Do Have many offspring
Of things
I’ve seen, then sown
I’ve fathered many words
Which fathered many more
Some grew into poems
Though none
We’re named…
"Lenore"
I developed many photos
Tweaking
Here and there
They may live on forever
I’ll leave them in your care
I’ve conjured many dishes
Some
I’ve written down
Other's
Will expire
They’ll go
When I am gone
I’ve never fathered children
Though
Leave this legacy
I know
It’s not the same
But…
Keeps good company
