Cancer (R1) Poem by Asit Kumar Sanyal

The letter 'C' is familiar to all
It stands for cancer
It enters in the house like a cat
without making any sound
And goes out reaching to its target
Cancer develops for many reasons
It is very scary
And becomes more scary
when happens with the much loved one.

Cancer appears in many forms
But most are preventive
Through the change of lifestyle,
Early detection and proper treatment.
The risk of cancer may be reduced
By eating a diet rich in fruits, vegetables,
Limited animal fats, no red meats
Reduced salty food
And less processed food with salt.

To reduce risk of cancer...
try to be vegan
Always have branded organic food
avoid tobacco in any form
Do not consume any type of alcohol
be physically active for thirty minutes
And protect body from strong sun.
If cancer enters in your house
It will compel to sell even utensils.
