Why get the stigma by your carelessness? <br />Why hold your life and that of others’ in harness? <br />Why spread the virus through life-saving blood? <br />Why pluck a flower when ’tis just a bud? <br /> <br />A victim like yourself, why make your spouse? <br />Why disturb harmony of your own house? <br />Why pass the virus to your new-born child? <br />The disease has no cure and could run wild! <br /> <br />The AIDS virus does not spare anyone; <br />The victim will meet his/ her grave quite soon; <br />Others around them too suffer (no less): <br />The curse could leave many a life in mess! <br /> <br />Go test your blood if you have slightest doubt; <br />Good change of life, counseling brings about; <br />Adhere to ART for life and live; <br />Promising future, new vaccines could give!<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/on-aids/
