My heart needs help
But I was born strong
Natural street fighter
Rough and Tough
Despite my size
Tender with love like my daddy
Mama loves the sweetness
Deep in my soul and prays
That I be made more whole
The world needs to know
Beautiful Baby Khole
This poem is dedicated to Kellie Elmore’s nephew Khole who was born 2 weeks ago with a heart defect. He is undergoing care at Vanderbilt University Hospital in Nashville, TN.
Building A Life Of Hope 
Kellie’s family is sure to love this poem. I do.
Oh I am glad you do! Kellie has a great idea going here. I hope our words help.
This is so sweet – prayers are definitely going up!
It is great to see the responses to Kellie’s request. So many pulling hard for the little guy and his family!
Reading all these I’m about to cry. Very beautiful with a touch of sweetness. 🙂
Very nice Kim!
