An Ode To Healthcare

( The heroes at the front )

.

Dear doctors, nurses and healthcare pros.

When this thing will stop, nobody knows!

Until that time, your work is priceless!

Without your strength, many more will be lifeless.

.

As leaders bumble their way through policy,

Us normal folk will remember your legacy.

The heroes wearing gloves and masks,

Doing their best, no matter the tasks.

.

Whilst we stay safe and wait inside,

We hope you feel a sense of pride.

For you are the ones that will see us through.

The ones in white and green and blue.

.

Whatever else you may be wearing,

Add an invisible cape of caring.

Comic books haven’t seen anything yet.

You are the stars that will vanquish this threat.

.

Protecting you is what we must do.

It’s really quite simple, my friends here’s a clue.

People inside, together or alone, Simply…

STAY THE FUCK AT HOME!
