A nurse is knowledge shining with a ray of hope for all, With talent and with courage to re- spond to duty ' s call — A dedicated heart and watchful eyes throughout the night, A voice to comfort and assure that all will soon be right — A nurse is constant reassurance, firm but gentle hands, A smile that tells each patient some- one cares and understands — A nurse is all these things and so much more. 16
