I will be 80-years-of-age on the 10th of April. I enjoy writing, and I would love to win the laptop, but then, so would others. The Downhome is a very interesting magazine, I really enjoy the stories. Keep up the good work.

Nurses Are God's Gift From Heaven

A gift He has truly given
For the elderly and the sick
It doesn't matter and it isn't a trick
Wisdom and knowledge He has given
A very special gift from Heaven

He's put healing in their loving hands
Tenderness and a gentle touch
Protect them Lord day and night
Long hours make them tired so much

They learned to study late at night
So everything would be just right
Regardless of age, young or old
Weather won't stop them, warm or cold
Let them know somehow, we love them everyday
No harm will come if they trust You God each day.
