In a government hospital with a loved one since a week
as I watch the men (and women) in white coats
walk in and out of the many rooms
caring for the weak
some how...
all these men have the same streak
a simple hair do
a simple dress sense
just a regular school boy look
with a white overcoat to profess
Bespectacled are most eyes
rarely have time to smile
rushing bed to bed, room to room
little stressed, saving lives
Past many a waiting patients
thru the over crowded corridors
him you see
engrossed in work
absorbed in thought...
"which is the best way to give my patient relief?"
Be he with or without the white coat
your mind is relieved
to see
so many doctors
in and around the weak.
Through the crowd of OPD and inpatients injured or weak
a visit by the doctor
lightens the grief
reposes faith and relief
the man in the white coat
is most wanted
and the one we long to see.
In a world besotted with glamour and tweets
the simple bespectacled man
in the simple white coat
dedicatedly he treats
oblivious of the endorphins he evokes
as he works through infections and disease
His dedication and deeds
by no means simple or mean
maketh him handsome and the most wanted
even if his dress sense is bleak!
