| Running full steam ahead Alarms beeping, Lights buzzing Trays to pass, people to feed Running full steam ahead Alarms beeping Lights buzzing A call for help over your radio Running full steam ahead Alarms beeping lights Buzzing Someone needs to use the bathroom, someone needs coffee, someone needs sugar Running full steam ahead Alarms beeping, Lights Flashing Need those vitals need those weights Running full steam ahead Alarms beeping lights flashing Charting to finish, barrels to empty Don't forget to give report Running full steam ahead Alarms beeping Lights buzzing Oh and have it done by 2 o'clock please Running full steam ahead Alarms beeping lights buzzing Running full steam ahead Alarms beeping lights flashing Running full steam ahead Alarms beeping lights buzzing This is the day in the life of a CNA |

i m paraprofessional in a grade school.not only do we run around,do all the nose wiping and huggingbut we are also not considered very smart!
i am smart because i get to do all these important things. just like you,,think of how much pleasure you bring!Cleanliness and food and comfort!
Mother teresa always stopped by the ditches to help a dying peron. when asked why she said because i can!
thanks for your poem and your hard work
