We ,twins sit deep inside the back of your belly,
Work really hard and make your urine so smelly,

If for any reason one of us fails ,the other takes over fully,
You can rely on our working , which goes on continuously.
We throw out the poisons collected in your body,
Maintain you blood ph and BP ,try our best not to be shoddy.

We protect your heart and are a crucial part of your body's wealth .
Diabetes, high BP, infections and toxins make us sick,

Our wish list to keep us healthy is not tough,
If you remain active our blood flow increases enough,
This helps us to flush out your heaps of terrible toxins,
Eat a diet free of urea and uric acids ,you have no options.
We love it when you drink plenty of water regularly,
We need a minimum of two and a half liters daily.
We hate when you smoke or take hard drinks,
The toxins they produce put our bodies in a jinx.
Sometimes our sickness may be inherent or immune mediated,
Our regular heath check ups are important and most appreciated .
Our job is quite tough as you can guess,
Your will power is solicited to look after us.
To enjoy good health we cannot be neglected,

Though we are small bean shaped weighing only 150 gms each,
Your loving and doting care is what we always beseech .
Physical exercise is also an important way to keep the kidneys healthy. Exercise increases blood circulation to the kidneys.
