Bird Rescue

The boxes on the counter contain open-wide beaks
Of newly hatched birds, each begging for the food he seeks.
These babies are orphans, whose parents died or have left,
Or they fell out of a nest, leaving parents bereft.

Birds, hand-raised, are depending on those volunteering.
Our heroes are the bird lovers who show such caring.
We need these helpers who

drove for thirty minutes to the subway station, took a train for forty minutes, got into another for only ten minutes, and reached Queen's Park. Mornings are so hectic, people are rushing to their work-places. Fortunately found a seat beside the window, and looked at all the faces in the compartment. 

It was a university-bound

Memories of Fire: a Tribute To My Volunteer Firefighting Days

Looking back, I cherish the memories,
Of the firehouse and my fellow colleagues.
The camaraderie, the shared experience,
The bonds we formed, will always make sense.

I found purpose in serving others,
In moments of strife, I discovered my true colors.
Selflessness, bravery, and dedication,
Are the hallmarks of our noble vocation.

So here's to our firefighters, the brave and true,
Who risk their

sirens pierce the snowy air
demanding - a sudden call to action
vehicles fill the town hall lot
uniforms cover regular clothes
teams converge...
fire truck emerges and 
leaves with rapidly assembled crew…
neighbors doing what neighbors do

Volunteer

Need volunteers in the Army?
Here’s what they do
Just line up a squad and say
You, you, and you.
Nobody bothers to think
Or even to ask 
Whether you have the knowledge 
Or ability to carry out the task

Just assume you’ll find a way
To carry out just what they say.
Write a report for the Depot O.C.
Just the task they

No Fear 2 Volunteer

When the Special Olympics roll around. 
Otis hears the call and the whistle sound. 
Whether the games are winter or summer. 
We bring the fun so it’s never a bummer. 

In Connecticut the events take the stage. 
Relying on helpers not seeking a wage. 
For the folks who come out to W Hartford. 
They make

The Volunteer
                  by Bob Moore (c) 2019

A volunteer is worth, a thousand conscripts so they say
I would never volunteer, if I had my own way
but when the sergeant says, two volunteers, that’s you and you.
you have to grin

Ride In the Subway For Twenty-Five Days

Drove for thirty minutes to Subway Station, 
Took a train for forty minutes, 
Got into another for only ten minutes, 
reached Queen's Park.

Mornings are hectic, 
found a seat beside the window, 
looked at all the faces, 
It was an university-bound train, 
many young faces, fashionable jeans, 
T-shirts with interesting quotes - from " life's a

We sit around the volunteer campfire.
The heat warming our chilled bodies.
Red yellow flames flicker in the darkened sky.
Holding bottles of cold beer.

Some silently drink with solitary thoughts.
Others are engaged in conversation.
Different languages mingling into one sound.
Laughter and music around us.

Someone dances around the group.
We look suddenly there are two, three then four.
In a circle, we

A Moment In the Life of a Volunteer Firefighter

As I am sitting quietly, with my family
Watching TV and enjoying the night 
Then comes the tones from my radio
Signaling something is not all right

Not knowing what the call may bring
My heart rate begins to rise
It could be a house on fire
Or a wreck causing someone's demise

I hurry to the fire station 
Listening intently on

Nature: Volunteer Firefighters

"The fire has crossed containment lines,
Dunns Road has just been breached,
Emergency vehicles have withdrawn,
You cannot be reached",
Local radio announces every minute,
Evacuation roads are shut,
Power and phones are all now down,
You're alone with the smoke and dust.

Then through the haze of black and red,
Fire cowlicks up your house,
Adrenaline shakes your trembling hand,
Your legs, your chest, your

Volunteering

A great opportunity 
To be a child again 
To play, to laugh 
To forget your worries 
To see the world 
From a child’s eyes 
To live for the moment 
Never worry about the next 
To let go of any inhibitions
To be free again 
To give someone joy & love
To learn something 
Others have forgotten to
