World No Tobacco Day

World No Tobacco Day*

Say yes to life

By saying 

No to tobacco.

Stop tobacco before

Tobacco stops you.

Are you smoking tobacco

Or is it smoking you?

There are slogans galore

About saying 

No to tobacco.

Never think smoking is cool

Never behave like a fool.

The physician counseled me

To kill tobacco.

I gave up smoking

As I started choking, 

My cravings are coming back.

No more fags for me

I won’t inundate my lungs

With leafy smokes.

I won’t spread carcinogens

In the air.

Don’t allow tobacco smoke

To kill you fast.

Don’t let tobacco 

Cause cancer in your body.

Don’t permit tobacco

To shorten your life.

For a longer life to unfold

Bid tobacco a firm goodbye.

Embrace a future bold

Where health and happiness lie.

*I owe slogans to internet. 

World No Tobacco Day is observed every year on 31st May.
