Nursery Nurses

From beds to man sheds our hospitals the true Churches

Angels gliding halls never touching floors my heaven these Nurses

With laments to love we sing their hearts in every verse or chorus

So worn these horns they put upon us men, their poorest of Taurus

If only eyes could speak what this ceiling does say

Give my spirit breath to walk in Sun always with me this day

Patient of ear hearing the speaking tears only to end making one last friend

Finding peace in years that Father left his pain on words never meant

Hasten not this fate that I may crave of you my finest taste

Every goodnight how you starred in dream of my best escape

Nurse of their sick we show your face to all that rest in wake

Solemn be thy souls rested love for my poor smile

Dearest hell shall I give myself to deliverance of sincerest denial

Once how fury came my bridal shame that did divorce his crying best

Undress all that be best of intent as care layed bare this wallowing of mess

Ten steps to forget how to stand aside and salute my first step from regret

I, my lowest bird now address the Woods of Birch

Hospitable turns throwing patience nursed over bodies how feeble it perched

From hell my howling soul screams thy mirrors curse

What be heaven for I see them here in company of nurse

The furthest from perfect, yet here I be presenting my worst

Give you this galaxy in thanks of saving my dust left in the old hearse

Telescopic anthologies tell us of wellness in allegory

Disarm me of harm my last gasp shan't give hospice in this observatory

Fixing the worst of me that purposed old courtesy

To perfect a circle one must first learn his own mechanic

Take this my calm as I rest without harm of life in quiet panic

Love carried that dare in us to fare all weather of nursing mare

Dancing my Christmas greeting life whilst eating your pear

What taste be this in perfections so unique to forgive us in air that stare

Never shall we let them fall in crying halls the answer to our prayers

Their wings shown on walls in wards these wardens of shore

Call to you our great treasures so we may know never are the sick so poor

They part clouds with strides to drive this life with legs so divine

We hide in light for you my hello nurse Valentine

Your love is the happy place that fingerpaints our sunshine

Take side of the silent in sickness no wish needed to admire your kind

Honoured be all who see the halls of Nurses that glow with all our pride
