As we look in our children's faces br We look for little pieces of ourselves br Color of eyes, crooked nose br Freckles, dimples on bright smiles br Maybe kindness or a little patience br Thoughtfulness and compassion br Traits we instill hopefully br To those we leave behind br br We try to see reflections of ourselves br Looking for the best we could have been br Hoping to find it in our children br Thinking with them, we will find redemption br Looking for a glimpse of the future br In how we will be remembered br Our forever is with them br They are our legacy.
