Back to Money

Lifepoems

Struggle and tuggle at other life things,
get to the job that makes the phone ring.
They seek not the comfort of witchery ways,
the job of the nurse eventually pays.
Despite all the trials of occupational haze,
I know what pays off at the end of my days.
It's the travelling from house to house calls that I do.
It raises the fortune and keeps my heart true.
The path was well beaten and I nearly retired.
Need for survival has got me all fired.
I'm gracious to know that I have a way out.
Yet other passions have started to spout.
I share this with you as I feel I'm locked in,
A nurse with no patients is surely a sin.
So back to the field I travel again.
For healing is healing, I can not refrain.

ND, I don't wish to place emphasis on any one thing in your piece,
as the whole write was truly inspiring, but the second stanza really
spoke to me of what matters in this world the most. And what we
all die with at the end ... it's not the monetary wealth or possessions
we've acquired through the years but the richness in our existence
that was fulfilled through our connections to other humans while
here. :)
Wonderful post.

Great work.

Being a nurse, I understand that pull....after twenty four years though..so much about the health care system has tainted me (plus I have health problems). I would like to work like the old days before the bureaucratic red tape and the bullcrap. I had such a love for nursing when I first started....Anyway great write.
*hugs you tight for your wonderful dedication*
Much peace,
Laura |

I have a tremendous amount of respect for those
who've made it their life's work to healing the sick
and the well being of others.
Be sure to nurture those other passions~

This is defiinately a treasure to behold and you are a treasure in the never ending battle for life. most uplifting and encouraging being married to a nurse i know only to well how under rated and underpaid you are in a most noblest of professions.
