Your Heart Is Your Life

Your heart beats tirelessly within

The chambers deep and the silence stirs

Day and night never resting a while

With every beat, it leads our life

Each pulse a true promise for us

A rhythm made of all we routinely do

It flourishes on the breath we take

On the blood that know which way to go

It craves for laughter, rest, and peace

When you feed it smoke and stress

Burry it down under sugar’s mount

It wishers slowly and begins to ache

So let us guard this vital beat carefully

With every step, with mindful care

As it holds us back from death

Eat fresh greens, grains, and fruits

Stay away from fried and fatty meals

You keep it strong as it keeps you strong

Drink enough plain water and not sodas

Try moving more and stressing less

Your heart will thank you as you go

A healthy heart blesses you with
More joyful years, more life to live

Listen closely and wisely to your heart

It beats for you, so treat it right

For life is short, yet vast and wide

So love it well and keep its music lively
