The Book of Life

Nothing on earth will ever die
Your DNA will show you why
The folks you hold dear
May all reappear
As a child who makes your heart sigh

Everyone's DNA is a millennial record of "extinct" species, so it surprises me that the medical profession do not include a patient's DNA in their file. Thanks for reading and commenting! Aloha! Rico
