A Hero of Humanity

If ever humanity
A committee should chose
Its case for mercy before our Lord to present
Has better 
The Congolese doctor Mukwege include
For
Its request to have a chance to be granted!

He is a man:
Of God
Of love
Of compassion 
Of peace
Of justice
That has his own life endangered many a time
For 
To treat more than 50.000 victims, of horrid rape
Thus saving numerous lives
In the torn by civil war Republic of Congo and elsewhere 

The world
Having recognised his enormous contribution to humankind
Honored him with
The Nobel Peace Prize Award,
As a small token for his courage and love !

Let us all be inspired by this man who uplifts our species to 
Levels that our Lord has planned it to reach
And
Let us declare him 

A HERO OF HUMANITY!

So happy to see you caring dear, Vijay! I was so right to tell our friend Tom that only a very few people do care for goodness and people with ideals and love in their heart! God bless you!

Yes, my dear friend, Tom! We should be inspired by such people and we should praise them more than anybody else or anything else! God bless you! UNFORTUNATELY NOT MANY SEEM TO CARE!
