Angels of Mercy

Angels of Mercy To all those who have been deemed essential Dealing with a virus, with a death rate so potential Looking into the eyes of a gowned, masked healer Seeing fatigue and fear, but bravely the concealer To all the police officers, who place their lives on the line To all the nurses, who lovingly care for all those confined To all the doctors, who have always been there for us all To all the paramedics, caring for the big and very small To all the bus drivers who bravely take people to and fro To all the truckers, driving lonely, away from all they know To all the grocery workers, stocking shelves of what we need To all the frontline workers, always there to help us succeed To all the families, adhering to all the social distancing now To all the children, in this fearful time, being brave somehow To each and everyone of us, this virus has somehow touched We are all angels of mercy, our undying humanity untouched By Charlie Baker
