For the staff of 54

Poem by Ann Pass

Happy smiles up and down
lasting from morning till night;
people around in times of depression
people to say thing are all right.
There's always someone around
taking blood pressure or giving a pill
someone who will look after you
when you're feeling ill.
I've been on a few other wards
either visiting or short stay
but no one beats the staff on 54
they come out tops in every way.
So keep up your smiles and cheery ways
Cause it pulls us up when we're down
but the thing is, it comes naturally
you don't have to go to town.
