PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

A poem of thanks

I send to those

From our ranks,

In harm’s way pose.



I speak of the cops,

Helping us to evacuate,

Then staying on top

Keeping looters away.



Thank you.



I speak of the utility women and men

From all the states

That have come in,

To restore services no matter what it takes.



Thank you.



I speak of the department and grocery stores,

That bring in ice and give it away free,

Staying open longer than before,

To provide necessities.



Thank you.



I speak of the drivers of the gas trucks,

Without them, evacuees would be stuck.

I speak of the relief workers and volunteers,

When you pass them on the road, raise a cheer.



Thank you.



For our neighbors that are reaching out,

And all those doing their part,

You know what it is all about,

And our thanks comes from deep in our hearts.



Thank you for all you do,

This poem, is a special thanks to all of you.
