This beautiful poem was written and submitted by Patricia Capansky. It talks about firefighters and what they do for us every single day. It’s dedicated to all the brave and loving firefighters out there. It’s our little way of saying, thank you.
EARTH ANGELS IN UNIFORM
So little do we realize
the many things they do
or how much they affect our lives
as each day we go through
Because each time disaster strikes
on them we can depend
to demonstrate their expertise
as helping hands they lend.
So graciously they do their jobs
with all the help they give
and often risk their own lives
that someone else might live.
When something tragic happens
you’ll always find them there
this special group in uniform
with which none can compare.
The tragedies they cover
are too numerous to tell,
like fires, floods, and tornadoes
and small children in a well.
In daylight or in darkness,
clear weather or a storm
you’ll find these Guardian Angels
in a Fireman’s Uniform.

I was in a car accident a while back. A deer stepped out in front of me on my way home from church; so I had to slow down to avoid hitting the deer when a car hit me in the back. 911 was called and shortly after fire trucks and firefighters were there. My neck was hurting so they put me on a board a transported me on an ambulance to the hospital. The firefighters were so sweet and they do so much!!! Firemen, paramedics, cops, nurses, and doctors are all my heroes!!! Thank you all for your work!!!!:)
