    Give till there's nothing left

    My life I lost when I was born
    My heart I lost when mother died
    My brain I left in my city
    and all this lead to my demise

    My ears I lent to everyone
    and my kidneys to those dying
    My legs the World War II veterans
    and my skin to the cancer survivors

    My arms go to feed the hungry
    My mouth gives advice to family
    and to my friends I leave the rest
    of my body
    May it bring them the best of luck
    the last thing I give is my
    soul, may the future generation
    use it wisely

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
