I wrote this poem for my nurses....they were so happy with it...sometimes they are just not recognized as they should be.
 

“Unsung Heroes”

This has been a long tough journey

We wish no one had to endure.

And we pray each and every day

That soon they find a cure.

 
But until that wonderful day happens

And we no longer need this place,

We know that when we come through that door

We will be met by a smiling face.

 
They have a special calling, God put them in this place

They take care of all of us with smile on their face.

I call them my “unsung heroes”, because that is who they are

They sometimes go unnoticed, but they are a shining star.

 
They make this time of treatment as good as good can be,

They laugh and joke , but always doing their job with efficiency

So my “unsung heroes, you are special to us all.

God will surely bless you as you continue in His Call.

Carol French

It truly amazes me how those ladies are always there to offer a smile, a warm solid shoulder, wisdom when I was ready to fall over the edge, willing to determination to make us well and Carol somehow you captured all that and more. Thanks once again, M
