Tanka: Novice to Expert

by Chrissy710

Nursing's in my blood
caring and compassionate 
many changes seen
 for fifty years I have worked
from a novice to expert.

I have just clocked over my 50 year anniversary in the nursing profession

I began my nursing training on 26th January 1970 and this years on 26th January I worked a shift in our Emergency Department to celebrate my 50 years as a nurse and I enjoyed every minute of my shift.

I am still as passionate as the day I started and I hope my patient's were happy also.

I thought I would use the Tanka for to write about my day again with no punctuation, except Capital on first word Nursing's. I hope this poem meets Tanka requirement about a strong emotion.

Thank for reading my work

Cheers Christine
