Notes About The Poem

Inspired by a christmas movie called "Once upon A Christmas Miralce" 

Unselfish

What could be more unselfish
than to give a part of your body
to a complete stranger? 
Knowing that your gift will save their life
Not caring that your own life is at risk.
just to help this stranger.
To know that your unself act
will allow them to live
to maybe have their own family
to be for ever be one with them
We need more people like this.
The world becomes a better place.
Most would not even entertain
doing something like this
I can not revel a more unselfish
Than to give a stranger part 
of yourself as living gift.

I agree, Shadow, kudos to all that have and all that will give of themselves to save or help others. I like your poem, Shadow; I'll be back to read more soon. A poet friend to be, Bill
