Nurse to Breakfast Eggspert
In the kitchen of the aged care home,
The nursing staff work with dedication and chrome.
They crack the eggs with eggspertise,
Creating dishes for the residents' surprise.
From egg and bacon to an omelette spread,
These nurses put their eggstraordinary skills to bed.
The scrambled eggs, the fried or boiled,
All cooked to perfection, never spoiled.
Each day a new eggscuse to cook,
The nursing staff never seem to look,
Tired or bored of the eggscellent dishes they make,
Their eggspertise shining, never fake.
As they bake and fry, they eggsplore,
The different ways to cook, always eager for more.
From quiches to souffles, they eggspand their range,
Their culinary skills will never change.
They don't count their eggs before they hatch,
But always ensure the residents' needs they match.
Their eggceptional service, eggactly what they need,
A comfort in their later years, their hunger they feed.
So let's toast to the nursing staff,
Eggspanding horizons, never taking a half.
Their sunny side up approach to life,
Gives residents joy, relieves their strife.
With laughter and love, they eggsplore,
The joys of cooking, never a bore.
Thank you to the nursing staff in the aged care home,
For making every meal eggscellent, never alone.
