Gross Anatomy
by Allison Evans, MS1; MUSC
Rough, weathered hands…you must have worked a lot.
Lines around your lips and forehead…you must have laughed a lot.
Worn soles upon your feet…you must have danced a lot.
A great heart inside your chest…you must have loved a lot.
In a few short months, I have learned much about you,
And yet I know nothing of your self.
You have taught me much; you have showed me much,
More than the books upon my shelf.
I often wonder, are you watching me
In some far off place, learning as I do?
Are you encouraging me, supporting me
In these dreams that I pursue?
Do you know what your decision has done?
A donation not given to just any,
Do you know how much your gift has meant?
In giving yours, you will save many.
