Florence Nightingale,
from England did hail.
Nurse extraordinaire,
she revamped medical care.

"The Lady with the Lamp," Florence Nightingale
  Icon of Victorian culture. Her life, an exciting tale

     White pinafore over colonial dress, she wore
She served as first woman nurse in The Crimean War

You Can Not See
Behind closed doors,
within haunting walls.
Bewildered cries.
Disturbing calls.

Nosey neighbour,
reports of the scene;
anxiously waiting
to hear, "Not as it seems..."

No Florence Nightingale,
this Lady of the lamp;
inviting in strangers, -
house a massage parlour - vamped....

The Caring Nightingale
Three cheers for feisty Florence Nightingale
Who took under her wing the wounded and the frail.
'The lady with the lamp' lit up those soldiers' lives.
Old age snuffed out her candle but her nursing legacy survives.

Premium Member Forget Your Lies
 
Tell your lies, tell more lies You think you've got good alibis! Twist the tale it's your big fail You're no Florence Nightingale You forget the past, within your grasp It leaves me standing much aghast Forgot your lies? That was not wise Your intent I only can surmise Take off your mask and drop the act I operate only on fact Flip the script - you're not legit Forget this I think I'm over it!!!

A Mother's Love
Throughout my life you've cared for me
In oh so many ways.
You were my Florence Nightingale
Way back in childhood days.

And nestled in your cosy lap
I'd readily engage
With captivating stories as
Your voice lit up each page.

Returning home from school each day
I knew you would be there
And on the table there would be
A tasty meal to share.

That child is now a Mum herself
Oh how the years have flown.
But time has served to magnify
The love you've always shown....

Blue Dress

Tailored

Bespoke

Blue without a doubt is your colour

You of Royal Blue Blood

With Blue Lace Lingerie underneath

My vision , 
My Lady in Blue

I love the way your curves fill that dress

The way the 1st time our eye's met

I remember you resplendent
in that Blue Dress

When you were the 1st thing i seen
when i awoke from my Coma

My very own Florence Nightingale
in your Blue Nurses Dress
