The Key

The Key

My father had a stroke when I was only nineteen

There I knew life is taking me away from the tower of ivory

I learned to worry for my parent’s BP and Blood Lipid

While I was afraid insurance might not want to take me for policy

My mom was admitted just when I graduated from part-time study

Doctor said it was Leukaemia and there isn’t defined remedy

I could only stay strong besides falling on my knees

Before I knew mom will never be present for my future glories

Mom has seven sisters and they are all my lovely aunties

Unfortunately Nasal Cancer chosen the fifth

Just when she survived with her face different from our memories

The husband was taken away by the silent Liver Cirrhosis

They say insurance can make your life much more easy

But the big cheque can never make my fifth aunt happy

If we could turn back the clock to anytime much early

Health Screening is what we will do before buying any policy

Love your family by first keeping yourself Healthy

“Early Detection Saves Life” is the gospel I will preach

Life Style, Diet and Health Screening are surely the Key

To the Garden of Eden where every family could live happily
