POEM ON STETHOSCOPE
(Note: To be recited in crooning style)
Doctor dear, doctor nice
Doctor kind, doctor wise
Hanging around your neck
What is called that device?
***
It’s a stethoscope neat
To know patient’s heart beat
To listen to sounds of lungs
To hear our muscles’ thumps
***
Scientists proposed the concept
Engineers designed the gadget
Technology made it precise
Now the gadget is digitised
***
Sixty to hundred beats per minute
That’s the normal range ‘n quite fair
When beats’re not within normal range
Then the person needs the Medicare
