At the fire sat a girl named Amber

At the fire sat a girl named Amber
Who studied each remaining ember.
She wanted to capture
Her feelings of rapture
With crayons of orange and umber.

Tribute to nurses - There once was a nurse they called Chuck

There once was a nurse they called Chuck
Who bet his patients half-a-buck
            That they couldn’t stand
            While holding his hand.
He always lost.  Such was his luck.

Tribute to nurses - There once was a nurse they called Amy

There once was a nurse they called Any
Who said, “I don’t let doctors play me.
            Those initials, ‘M. D.’
            Never mean much to me.
Pleasing patients.  That's why they pay me.”

Tribute to nurses - There once was a nurse they called Betty

There once was a nurse they called Betty
Who always stood there at the ready
            To provide a kind touch
            Which meant so very much
To patients whose health was unsteady.
