ABC POEM – PEDIATRIC VISIT
Anxious and fearful as his name is called
Blissful play comes to a screeching halt
Carey said he should run, he wouldn’t be at fault
Danger is behind that door that was the advice from Walt
Every kid in the room is still playing
For they don’t know the price they’ll be paying
Gone is the fun he was having today
How is he ever going to make it through this day
Imagined the biggest needle for sure
Just seeing a white coat and he knows the score
Kindness and gentleness in abundance he needs
Love and tight hugs from mom he will seek
Maybe on this visit it won’t be that sad
Now that he’s a big boy he can’t act that bad
Often when he’s scared mom makes it go away
Promises were made that he’ll still want to play
Quietly he holds tight as the doctor takes a peek
Right as he says “Aaah”, doc says “ I can see your feet!”
Surely that light is not as bright as that, just how far down was he able to see?
That does not sound right so he knows that cannot be
Unashamed as he was well behaved he’s a big boy that’s true
Victory’s at hand, doc played his hand, and no needle had he seen
Well done says mom such a good boy you have been
Xray he laid still for and he did not even cry
Yellow stickers in hand, chest poofed out it’ s time to go so he says the loudest good-bye
Zoor the monster-killer has never been as brave as he
