The Legacy Journey is my first go at writing a poem.

The Legacy Journey


The Spanish moss dances from the trees

The tires rumble on the road

The journey to excellence begins

The burden of a legacy looms


The roar of the DI chases me from my dream

The yellow footprints lead me to my future

The journey to excellence begins

The burden of a legacy looms


The language we speak is ours alone

The emblem we wear is of a hero's blood

The journey to excellence begins

The burden of a legacy looms


The rifles clack and heal pound

The sweat soaks the ground below

The journey to excellence begins

The burden of a legacy looms


The march led me to my final event

The obstacles challenge mental strength

The journey to excellence begins

The burden of a legacy looms


The monument transforms me

The legendary title I have earned

The journey to excellence begins

The burden of a legacy looms
