Analysis of Sister(Nurse)
None was by my bed side.
Only you were with attention,
Measuring B.P., Pulse, oxizen level
Without indignation.
When half of the world was asleep,
You slept not.
Windows of your eyes
Were never shut.
You obeyed your duty,
like my mother.
You were
Only my comforter.
Blessed is the life
who can save others
In sacrifice of own life.
