FAMILY DOCTOR, by DOROTHY BLADIN HILL First Line: Out of a world of black ignorance and ... Fear Last Line: To help the world face yet another day. Subject(s): Medicine; Drugs, Prescription | |||
Out of a world of black ignorance and jagged fear Standing sturdy like a beacon of guiding light, Dispelling the horror of a pain-filled night, You come to us, with your brusque, good cheer. How quick your hands to probe, your eyes to peer; What God-given strength lies in your quiet might, What sinewy muscles you use to win your fight. It's over . . . and instantly your face is clear As you smile over a task well done. Quietly you re-pack your medical kit And stop a moment long enough to say, "How bright the room is with the morning sun." And then you go again, doing your needed bit To help the world face yet another day. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...EL CURANDERO (THE HEALER) by RAFAEL CAMPO HER FINAL SHOW by RAFAEL CAMPO SONG FOR MY LOVER: 13.
