Remember Me--A Poem by Robert N. Test
by Robert N. Test, American Poet

Give my sight to the man who has never seen a sunrise, a baby's face, or love in the eyes of a woman.

Give my heart to a person whose own heart has caused nothing but endless days of pain.

Give my blood to the teenager who was pulled from the wreckage of his car, so that he might live to see his grandchildren play.

Give my kidneys to one who depends on a machine to exist from week to week.

Take my bones, every muscle, every fiber and nerve in my body and find a way to make a crippled child walk.

If you must bury something, let it be my faults, my weaknesses, and all prejudice against my fellow man.

Give my sins to the devil.

Give my soul to God.

If, by chance, you wish to remember me, do it with a kind deed or word to someone who needs you. If you do all I have asked, I will live forever.

Remember Me
Author: Judy Luttrell

Remember me in the songs you hear,
Remember me in the voices so near.

Remember me in the laughter so sweet.
Remember me in the faces you meet.

Remember me as you gather to dine,
Remember me as you share each other's time.

Remember me in the things you do and see.
Remember me as you make new memories.

Remember me in the still of the night,
Remember me, everything will be all right.

Remember me as life goes on,
Remember me, I'm in your heart where I belong.
