Brighter Moments (Pediatric Patients)
A tiny skinny figure
Walks in along with her mother
Thin Crescent of a moon
With a smile brighter than sun
She’s nimble on her feet
Matches her mothers stride
Climbs quickly on a chair
Before mom can sit down
Her complaints are usual
A runny nose or slight fever
But she never ever complains
It’s all done by her mother
Yet whenever I ask her
What breakfast she had today
She moves her neck
From this side to side that
Saying
Mom didn’t today serve her
Oh! Saying I glare in jest
How can you keep your child in hunger
Mother starts off saying she is full
And I wink at that tiny wonder

(This patient of mine whenever asked, what you had for breakfast, still nods her head vehemently saying, “Nothing at all” and then I fake anger and admonish her mother for keeping her hungry to see that gal chuckle and smile)
Adorable 🥰
Yes. She is cute and has a mind of her own
A wonderful quality.
I wish her happiness in her life 🥰
