My Valentine Poem to Help Spread Awareness About Congenital Heart Defects

A DAY FOR HEARTS on February 14th gives our vibrant networked online community the chance to participate in a humane cause: Promoting Awareness of Congenital Heart Defects.

Congenital Heart Defects (CHD) are a lethal constellation of heart birth defects affecting millions of infants and children worldwide; a killer that claims thousands of lives every year. 

On this special day, CONGENITAL HEART DEFECTS AWARENESS DAY, a concerted global effort is made to spread awareness of this deadly group of birth defects. We at CHDinfo.com support this event by offering information, resources and support to those whose lives have been touched by Congenital Heart Defects.

I've built this lens because Dr.Mani, A man I respect, asked me to. Dr Mani is a heart surgeon in Madras (Chennai) he spends many hours each day operating and using his skills to help children born with Congenital Heart Defects. He also works tirelessly to raise funding for operations on children who's parents cannot afford to pay for the surgery and hospital costs. His work saves many lives each year but with your help could save more.

Please help Dr Mani give hope to another family. Build a lens.
In exchange feel free to copy my poem to give to a loved one on CHD Awareness/Valentines Day. :) -
This Lens is getting on for a year old So I'm Adding another poem below....
I hope you find these poems and decide to help Dr.Mani
And if you do - I Thank You :)

 



            Valentine


Vulnerable am I these days,

Always wandering in a haze,

Love has filled me, head to toe,

Each and every, way and where, I go,

Never have I known, so much passion,

To fill my life in such a fashion,

I want and need you, Darling of mine,

Now and until the end of time,

Evermore to be - My Valentine.

Another Poem Added - Stop and Think about Life! 

A Childs Heart......

I've added this poem in the hope that more people who see it will appreciate what they have, and maybe take a few minutes to visit Dr.Mani's Link and Build a quick lens to support him!

And also to thank everyone who has rated and left comments on this lens :)

A Childs Heart...

Are all grown up's in this world so strange?,

Caught up with just towing the line,
Having too much stress and bills and worries,
Instead of enjoying all of their time.
Life should be appreciated so much more,
Don't just waste it all away,
Sing and dance and live with passion,

Have some fun each and every day,
Enjoy the fact that you are living life,
And be grateful of the ability to play a part,
Remember some children never make it to adulthood,
They enjoy the beauty of living life - with a defect in their heart!

Thanks for your time - I hope this helps you reflect how good life really is...

Another Love Poem, - use it and do what you can for CHD .....Thanx :) 

My Butterflies :)

Here's another poem for personal use, Not an acrostic - just a more traditional one. I do hope thst if you enjoy it and would like to use it --- you'll try and do something to help Dr.Mani in his efforts, (see the links above)..... Thanx again :)

My Butterflies

When I think of how much I love you,
It gives me such a thrill,
It's better than great - it's fabulous,
It's absolutely brill.

I wish I could find words to let you know,
How I feel inside my being,
Like elated, amazed and totally satisfied,
That you're the girl I'm seeing.

To love you and know that you love me too,
Is the best feeling since my life began,
To live the rest of it in love with you,
Is now my only plan.

To share with you my excitement,
At living my life with you,
To plan and build and dream together,
Then make it all come true.

I just can't find words enough to tell you,
That you simply are the best,
If you could only see the butterflies,
That flutter all round my chest.

The words I'm using don't go anywhere near,
Describing how happy I feel,
My heart just keeps skipping and dancing,
'Cos I know these feeling are real.

So I'll shut up about your beauty,
And ask you without any qualms,
To please stop reading this now,
And just hold me - tight in your loving arms.

Written to My Love, Shared to help Children.
Randy

A Poem For Mothers at this time of year 

(For my friends who have recently lost their Mum's)

Two friends have recently lost their Mum's, and Although it's not quite in the Valentine theme - I wanted to add this poem. (If that also helps save a child - I'm sure both Mums would be proud!)


        MOTHER

My life has not been easy,
            Tho' some folks really have it rough,

On the whole I can't complain,
            Even if some times have been tough,

There has always been someone there for me,
            Through the good times and the bad,

Helping me enjoy the happy times,
            And not dwell on the sad,

Ever loving, loyal and true,
            Steadfast and faithful like no other,

Rarely complaining of Her sacrifices,
            Just being my unique - and wonderful Mother.
