Compassionate Volunteers

Compassionate Volunteers

Does not matter what day, month or even time of year
Volunteers are always well deserved and are always here
They help with the impoverished, food banks
Babies and even with the elderly and the sick
All volunteers really know they surely have been
enthusiastically picked!

For when seeing them they have real nice
Eyes friendly smile and welcoming voice
And importantly so they are best dressed in
Volunteer's accessories of happy choice,
They wear brightly colored hospital scrubs.

Their won style of blue, yellow, pink or red
Some may say they sometimes bring police dogs
Who wag their tail when people pat their head,
The volunteers see what others do not see
They understand what others just want to be.

They realize a little compassion does go a long way
They generally help the sick or anyone in the hospital they stay,
They are very an "ear to the ground" as I well speak,
It is their caring ways that people do well and seek.

Whenever you need one  they will be there
In tea time, meal and whenever you need them,
They initially raise enthusiastic hope and sweet dreams.!
