Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 The Salk Vaccine


Dr. Jonas Salk was of mind

To do research on polio,

Rid this disease for humankind.

In 1948 he'd go

To work on finding a vaccine.

He found in 1952

From animal tests which did mean

Testing human children he'd do,

Including his own children, and

By 1955, success.

The whole world came to understand,

Prevent polio in progress.


Hailed a miracle worker, he

Chose to give his discovery.
