Knight Nurse

Dan Scholes 1988 (Ashford hospital)

Free verse
From kingdoms far and wide,
You're always there by our side,
Through troubles, thick and thin, you heal us with your greatest sin, by love and healing hand, compassion, and forever tired, there you stand.

So thank you nurses, one and all, guide us, until our last fall.

Your empathy, love, courage and knowledge,
Our faith in you blossoms in homage.

Dan Scholes
