World Heart Day 2020 Poem by narayana aghalaya

on this lovely day,
it is apt to spare some time,
to one whose pulse play
when rhythmic, one says' all fine ';
when missing, are they death signs?

for seven decades
and more, it serves, with no rest;
it's beats never fade,
pumping faster when strains test
muscles, or mind by tempest;

in life's marathon,
heart is the unsung hero,
pumping on and on,
even as the body grows
from pint size to six-foot pro;

for our heart's good health,
balanced lifestyle is a must,
not balance of wealth;
slow and steady, but be just;
for power, fame, have no lust;
