thank you poems

Thank you all for all that you have done.

Hard times are now turned into times of pride.

All this we managed with you by our side,

Nor could we otherwise this course have run.

Kindness isn't tendered on demand:

You gave with love, not merely out of duty.

Our days are daily burnished by that beauty.

Upon your love we three now proudly stand.

Thank you for being our guardian angel!

Having come to our rescue in our time of need.

Angels love people as parents love children,

Nor could we a better have found of the breed,

Knowing how hard such a one is to wangle!

Yet you, with your wings and your halo half-hidden,

On us have descended with glory unbidden,

Undoing the darkness our fate had decreed.
