The legacy of Barbara P
Not in silver or in gold
But how she went throughout her life
She was small but she was bold
Her roots were from a mixed stock
Father north and mother south
She spoke with truth and knowledge
When she opened up her mouth
Her richness was her attitude
Worked hard to find success
If things attempted to go sideways
Was good at cleaning up the mess
She thought she was a feminist
But was most of all a friend
Always set a good example
For the women and the men
Was all of this and so much more
Love and caring, did impart
There was nothing fake about her
What she gave came from the heart
Could have lived her life without me
When she said yes, I came along
We went through our lives together
Danced the dance, and sang the song
We raised our one and only child
She was all we were allowed
She has daughters, that are now adults
All three have made us very proud
They live by her example
And maybe just a bit from me
They are the treasures of our lives
And are her living legacy
She lived her life upon her sleeve
With her caring and her love
We should follow her example
She's now watching from above
