A Doctor’s Prayer
I see the suffering children and say I must help,
I see the pain and hurt and I know,
I can’t ignore when I feel and hear the call
To respond and do my best
To reach the sick and end the pain and
bring healing, and respite.
So few of us are left to heal and mend the hurt and
sickness.
We have fallen ill when we took the risk to save and help the others,
the stranger and we too have suffered and have died.
I ask why the entire world has so little care
As corona ravages the humble and the poor,
And the vaccines are reserved for the rich and not the weak?
Wicked hunger, squalor, and disease spreads with corona in nations that have brought conflict, riots and war upon themselves by corruption and by greed and are cursed to suffer and despair.
We, and all humanity with the compassion and concern can call for justice for the rich to share the wealth and heal the world so all are safe to live in peace without the suffering and the fear.Shay Cullen
