In Praise Of
It never ceases to amaze me
how much loving care is given
by our overworked medical staff.
Their dedication to patients supreme.
When one stops to think of abuse
that is often thrown their way.
It makes one wonder how they cope
with screaming thrashing confused people.
How hard to know that someone is dying
yet still show them kindness and respect.
All the while knowing their best is not enough
as a young child loses its battle against cancer.
Then the nasty jobs involving personal dignity
that are tackled with fortitude and grace.
Yes Indeed! Both our doctors and nurses
are the true angels worth their weight in gold
