De Pioneer Student Nurse

I want to be a Lawyer.
I want to be an Actress.
I want to be an Aeronautic Engineer.

Alas! I find myself in Nursing School.

Well, I loved the pretty Nurses I saw around.
I loved the smart uniforms and huge smiles they wore.
I loved the charisma and esteem even more.

However, nobody warned me to run.

There I was, amidst De Pioneer class.
Like a book with its numerous pages, Nursing School began unfolding.

The sun always kissed welldone.
Blood, pus, and pain were characteristic of Clinicals.
I started to question if I was really cut out for this.
But like the mafia, I was sucked in too deep already.

With an ocean of syllabus to cover,
Endless hours on my feet, wondering;
"Did I do my best to help this patient go through this illness?"
"How have I eased this pain? "
Adaptation came spontaneously.
Being a Nurse is like an onion bulb with so many layers summing up into one.
With patience, I learnt to listen.
With gentleness, I learnt to speak, I learnt to touch.

I soon came to the realization;
The Nurse's sole important tool indeed, is The Heart,
Cushioned into souls as pure as the snow white dove.

I am a proud Student Nurse.
I found my niche.
I pledge to be an Exemplary Nurse.
