BRUNO: AN ANGEL EARNED HIS WINGS

Off to the hospital on a festival day,
I arrived outside for a one day stay,
Prepared to enter, prepared to wait,
Made my way to the hospital gate,
But to my surprise and I admit dismay,
The lock on the gate was blocking my way.

I thought then we'd have to walk quite far,
But suddenly an angel appeared in his car!
His name was Bruno and he was brown,
Dressed quite normal, no heavenly gown.
"The gate is locked, you cannot get in!"
He said with c heeky but blissful grin.

A grin that shone like a celestrial star.
"I'll give you a lift in my little blue car!"
A short journey by car to the other side,
It sure was a helpful, heavenly ride,
That made me feel like I was a king,
And Bruno was earning his white Angel's wings.
