NHS is 70



Happy Birthday NHS


Today the NHS is seventy,
As dear to me as my own grannie.

In her presence, courage I take,
Though I see through her smile that her teeth are fake.

I feel my gran must live forever,
Nothing can destroy  ‘eternal treasure’.

She may soon need ‘life support’,
So let’s all unite and set at naught,

To save her from ‘Elder Abuse’,
From those who think she’s lost her use,

And desire to return to days conveniently forgotten,
When the poor die young and their teeth are rotten.

As we raise our teacups and cheer our queen,
Let us resolve that this protest is clearly seen.
