You won't see them on Television 
and they're not a Film Star 
they are known simply as Carers 
because that is who they are. 
They look after a loved one 
on call all times of the day 
they're selfless and devoted 
and don't do it for the pay. 
Looking after the patients needs 
which can often go on for years 
but they never ever give up 
and keep strong through all the tears. 
So lets give thanks to the Carers 
wherever you all may be 
for doing such a wonderful job 
with so much love and dignity.
