Doctor

I’m your friend a doctor,

Why are you afraid of me?

I treat your coughs,

And make your fever flee,

If you have a sore throat,

A scratched elbow or knee,

Simply come and visit me!

I’m usually seen in a spotless white coat,

around my neck hangs a stethoscope,

With a little touch I examine your throat,

Also your eyes, ears and nose!

I check your body temperature and height,

Check if you are too heavy or too light.

I may give your tummy a press here and there,

But I handle you with great care!

I make you stronger with vaccination,

I treat you with tonics and medicine.

How I hate to give you painful injections

To protect you from horrid infections!

I maybe a family doctor or a specialist,

A physician, a surgeon or a dentist,

I come rushing to save my patients

During emergencies or operations!

Your health indeed is your precious wealth,

So you must exercise and eat well.

If you’d ready like to keep me away,

Remember to have an apple a day!
