An Ode To Our Delivery Crew
To the ones who wake up before the sun,
Armor with gloves.
Jimmy the forklift.
Load the vans.
Box by box.
Bread by bread.
Bouquet by bouquet.
To the ones who dot the T’s and dot the I’s
Who check, double check, and triple check.
Stack by stack.
Stop by stop.
Knock by knock.
To the ones who silently serve.
Smile, sweat, and stay late.
The behind-the-scenes faces
that are essentially functioning.
Functions of our great, big
problem-solving crew.
They haul with cauliflower power.
They are the wheels of this thing.
Literally and figuratively.
