My wife is a Registered Nurse
At 60, she still had "The Curse"
A Time Machine
Helped her come clean
But our Edsel is stuck in reverse

My hospital bed is surprising
It goes up and down exercising
The bed pan stays still
But the contents spill
All over an organ downsizing!

Was bathing a cowboy named Twist

And then checked his pulse at the wrist

With neighbours Neil Down and Ben Dover

When done she would simply start over.

Boo-boo fixing.
Temperature taking.

There Once Was a Nurse

There once was a nurse called Seren
Who suddenly got pecked by a Heron
With her bag she did clout
And everything fell out
Now poor Seren shares her lipstick with a heron

Premium Member The Nurse Didn'T Want To Be Mean

Poor Mrs. Jones when she got the vaccine
The nurse-in-charge didn't want to be mean
  But Jones had no arms or legs
  The nurse decided she'd beg
Ma'am, may I inject you somewhere obscene

unicorns and uniforms
lanyards covered with teddy bears and hearts
everything sunny and happy here
until the pretty pediatric nurse takes out her stethoscope
When all hell breaks loose

Enslaved wet nurse

Raped in spirit, mind, and body

Premium Member SWELL TOM HOME SWEET HOME

Hey Tom, you look well cared for and well fed,
Sure you longed to sleep in your own bed,
You must've had pain, hope they spoiled you,	
More medication, preferred a whiskey or two,
Which nurse did you like best, which one a dread.

Limerick : Once a wife Nurse and husband Doctor

Once a wife Nurse and husband Doctor
Loved the meat served from Clinic larder
So they went in to see
Found morgue bodies for free
Since then stopped buying meat from butcher.

Premium Member She Was

Ann
Was
Teacher
And mother
Emergency nurse
A cheerful joy to all she knew
Giving God's wisdom, encouragement, laughter and hugs.
Thirty-one thousand five hundred days and she was gone.
Tears freely flowed; black was adorned.
Her life shaped many.
Family
Forgot
Ann
Though.

A Patient and a Nurse

I'm hospitalized and there was a nurse named Jane
She said I need plenty of sleep for my health attain
She took samples of my urine and then replaced the infusion
She gave me my medicine and always checked on my condition
And every time I tried to sleep, her present made me awake again!

A Good Nurse

A Good Nurse
I wish I could be a good nurse
To bring comfort and to help People when they are in pain
To wipe away tears and to strengthen recovery
To shower mercy and kindness and to bring smiles back on sad faces
To console those who are broken and to turn night into a shining day.

Ballad of the Nurse

To want to love 
To love to care
To care enough
Enough to share

To share your time
To play your part
To care enough
To give your heart

Nurse the sick
Soothe the pained
Day after day
And finish drained

Take courage, strength
Love and share
To care enough
Enough to care.

Premium Member She Is a Delight

She is a delight – in looks and in personality.
We surround her at lunch, wanting to hear her tinkling laugh.
She admires us and enjoys all of our stories.
We can tell the same story sixteen times.
She laughs each time as if she has never heard it.
All old timers need a nurse like this one!

Premium Member The Nurse

Hurrying towards an alley.
Chill air urges no dilly dally.
Breath beneath cape rising.
Inside a woman, in anguish, was writhing.
The husband tried to wipe the beads of sweat,
All in vain, a condition which she tried to forget.
Childbirth pains suddenly revived.
Cape off, the nurse has arrived.

Needlephobia

In the phlebotomy room,
there came a woman
And a man
And their lad
Inquiring, queuing

‘My blood, I give to you;
draw and draw freely,
I have no qualms’
The lad started,
Responding, boasting 

‘Yes, you can draw
by every means you choose
save with this needle!’
The lad protested,
Sobbing, struggling

Premium Member Miss Nightingale - Potd

In the flickering light of the lamp,
Despite the chilly night, air so damp,
She surveyed books so avidly read,
Studied the guidelines now in her head.
Time came: she departed for the war,
Sure she'd care for all those wounded sore.
Many followed as she left her stamp,
At night she'd be the lady with the lamp.
Form: Couplet

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 One Caring Nurse

children of World War two soldiers were patients
spending hour after hour in the polio ward of a hospital
a truly caring nurse invented a board game to engage them
she made sure they could play even if they were too young to read
all they had to do was recognize colors
They did not even have to name them
we know this game today as Candyland
