WHOLEHEARTEDLY

Wholeheartedly

image

A wish I wish wholeheartedly
That I leave the world wholeheartedly!

image

The heart that so palpitates
With rhythmic beats
Like soft drumbeats
Pulsating in another body
When I die and look down at him
As a soul that beams with joy.

A wish I wish wholeheartedly
That I leave the world wholeheartedly!

image

The eyes that once belonged to me
Through them all the beauty I did see
Now live longer than I did
Bringing joy to the once blind kid
His happiness knows no bounds
Now he can see things all around.

A wish I wish wholeheartedly
That I leave the world wholeheartedly!

The kidneys now are new fixtures
Not just for one but two Misters
Who waited for long for some donor
And now they sing like some crooner
What use was it if they died with me
Instead they filled two lives with glee.

A wish I wish wholeheartedly
That I leave the world wholeheartedly!

image

The bone marrow so fortunately
Has matched someone undoubtedly
Thus helping towards a cure
That had appeared obscure
Giving a gift of rejuvenation
To the life’s subscription.

A wish I wish wholeheartedly
That I leave the world wholeheartedly!

image

Having being a blood donor
In young age pretty sooner
A satisfactory feeling emerged
To be saving a life submerged
Every now and then and so often
A hero declared in my own challenge.

  1. I too like the idea of donating all that will benefit another, even my heart, wholeheartedly!
    Nice poem, Monica, it will serve as an inspiration to others to also give wholeheartedly.
