For the state of your health he is a man of all seasons.
If you have complaints he searches for obvious reasons.
He probes, he listens, he pokes and runs many a test,
he makes sure there is no murmur in your chest.
He knows you inside and out, studies your weight-
he wants to know if you sleep well or stay up late.
He makes you flex your muscles, takes your pressure,
asks a lot of questions and really takes your measure.
He tries to anticipate problems and prescribes potions,
he dispells your doubts, quells any of your funny notions.
He is the man you believe and should fully trust-
he is the one to whose orders you must adjust.
So-this is in praise of the doctor who keeps you going:
when the sands of time run out and you are aging and slowing.
