A legend too quick.
A legend too late.
A legend stands now;
A legend stands before the Masters gate.
A legend in my heart.
A legend who had a bumpy start
A legend who could not depart
His ways, but...
A legend who was my tart-tiest
My legend from the beginning
My legend for my evening.
Our legend through thick and thin;
A sweet legend.
A legend of old
The only legend I knew
A legend for my life,
So I thought
Until his departure.
His head in his hand,
As he often would.
Make plans for life;
Where a black man stood.
Strict, mean loving and caring,
Vague, bleak, giving and sharing.
My legend is described as human.
From the beginning to the end.
Good-bye my sweet love,
I shall see you again soon.
Once again, our sweet love,
When THE feet cross the moon.
A legend too late.

A legend in my heart.

A legend who could not depart

A legend who was my tart-tiest

Good-bye my sweet love,
I shall see you again soon.
Once again, our sweet love,
When THE feet cross the moon.
Keeba Kornered & Kaptured In Kaptivity
Legend

This was written especially for
my dad. It describes him to the
tee. Although he was a stern,
harsh man, he was well loved
and is still truly missed. Riding
in the car and instead of
breaking down with pain of his
departure, I elaborated on the
goodness of his life and what
he stood for. I never bragged
about anything in my life, but I
will do so now and say that he
was my “Legend.” I learned so
much. I’m thankful I’m able to
decipher the good from the bad
and decorate on what he tried
so hard to instill in me. (Thanks
