Donor card Friends,
Whoever you may be.
Please,
Have a heart and carry me.
Not much to ask,
Prepare or plan.
Light in weight,
Small card I am. Now, no-one says it will be you,
Accidental deaths, there are few.
However, just if, say, one day, maybe
Tragedy strikes.
In your pocket, there's me.
Doctors know just what to do,
With permission, quickly,
Organs they'll take from you.
To help a patient ill somewhere,
Carry a Donor Card and
Show you care. Mrs P Firth
Kirkebrok Road, Deane
