Notes About The Poem

Fran is ward sister at Burnham on sea hospital and made my stay there much better after I broke my hip. She truely goes the extra mile and her team follow her example. God bless you Fran and keep you safe

Fran

She was an angel of mercy
bringing a smile to all as she passed
her manner gentle yet confident
smoothing were her hands.

She took trouble and strife in her stride
seeming to draw strength from them
her face lit up when she smiled
a true nurse of mercy.

Bringing hope and light in her wake
always ready to help patients
to go the extra mile
she walks with god and will sit beside him

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts about Sister Fran through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
