Any grave illness, acute or chronic is like a curse,
That's when we know the importance of a nurse.
She is the one who helps us to this situation reverse;
Be it problems of heart, brain, kidneys, back or liver n bile.
It is a straining job to do so, yet she does it with a smile
That's the reason you recover enough to walk a mile.
She is like a daughter, sister, mother to those who are ill;
Giving medical treatment, be they, injections or many a pill
Overworked she is, tired n exasperated with this drill;
And yet does this she willingly, with a smile, for years, everyday.
Thank her with all our heart and at least a flower please offer today
Accept our gratitude dear Florence Nightingale; for your health we pray.
