Be a Nurse

No matter how well you are -
Born in a lucky sack – beware
Of the invisible, bizarre
Microbes regarding us as prey.

Don’t sneeze at yucky maladies.
Immune to sickness, you might still
Face unforseen fatalities
Among your friends that got so ill.

You’re brave, you’re tough, but have regard
For ailments that tear apart
On friendships, love and children’s dreams.
Be one who fights unwelcome strains

Of viral mucus and sickening slime;
Be one to guard the weaker kind -
To save, protect and immunize
Against the sicknesses of our times.
