Francis of Assisi said
“Remember that when you leave this earth you can taken nothing of what you have received, but only what you have a given: a full heart, enriched by honest service, love, sacrifice, and courage”
which inspired the following haiku in me:
by a wooden cross
only legacy remains –
chrysanthemum
