Legacy of light

Gold and silver faded thus
more luminous are thy needs
depth thy gauge within one's soul
quantified by deed,
For hope sustain when all bereft
nay not pose of mortal charm
hearts that wander in the myre 
seek to nourish in the harm,
bequeath to me thou noble thought
divulge thou mind that glow
though age inflict its savage ways
it's wisdom it doth grow,

Thus have and hold all that's  right
a glorious legacy of your light.
