Your reassuring hand on my shoulder,
Your empathetic eyes;
A rare gem who cares more than many in the field,
Clear-thinking and wise.
Never-judging- always positive ,
Declaring the distance I’ve come;
You make the mountains shrink away
And affirm all the hope that’s begun.
You’re a calming influence ; Your humour disarming-
As well as healing hands-
I’ll never forget your timely words
And the knowledge, ‘he understands’.
