A goodly heritage

As I think about my great grandfather, Thomas Sadler Roberts, part of my "goodly heritage," I remember others in my line who are part of the heritage I own. 

A goodly heritage
Is not enough
Unless
We add to it.
Unless we add
Our crumb
Fed to the birds
Around us
Seed
In the feeder.
A goodly heritage
Is not always
Children
Though we might
Name them so.
That is up to them.
A goodly heritage
Is meant to pass
As it might.
Words are mine.
A goodly heritage.
