By Andrew R. Duckworth
Family practitioner, knowing me
And the ailments of my family,
Unfettered by time,
Complicating certainty
In a way most uncomfortably
Save my life now, good doctor,
Unparalleled in your skill,
Conditions besting still, yet
Keeping your oath to do what’s right:
Saving the life of one you KNOW.
Poetry of Andrew Ryan Duckworth
