Poem: Student Nurses we are

One of my poems

Student Nurses we are

Students we are

Nurses we train to be

Books n' papers we read

Essays we write

Exams we take

On placements we go

In rain and snow

Here, there and everywhere

Skills we learn

Friends we make

Pride we take in all we do

Not enough hours in a day

To fit it all in

10 essays in the bin

5 break downs

And a bottle of gin

Trip and fall 

A wall we hit

Thoughts of failure,

I've had enough it's too tough

Something we all do

Fellow student, now are friends

To the rescue they come

Words of support, an arm around the shoulder

A text here and there

It shows they care

No ordinary students we are

We've come so far

Three years won't seen so long

When the day comes

Before my name

With honour and pride

Title of Nurse

We'll carry 

So 

Stay strong

and

Together

Nurses we will become
