A Firefighter’s Gloves

 

A Firefighter’s Gloves hold many things; from elderly arms to a kids broken swing;

From the hands they shake and the backs they pat; to the tiny claw marks of another treed cat.

At 2:00 a.m. they are filled with the chrome; from the DWI who was on his way home.

And the equipment they use to roll back the dash; from a family of 6 he involved in the crash.

 

They hold inch and three quarters flowing i75; so the ones going in, come back our alive.

When the regulator goes; and there isn’t much, but the bypass valve they eagerly clutch

The equipment, the ropes, the oxygen and C-collars; the lives that they save never measured in dollars,

Are the obvious things a firefighters gloves hold; or, so that is what I’ve always been told.

 

But there are other things Firefighters Gloves touch; those are the things we all need so much,

They hold back the rage on that 3:00 a.m. call; they hold in the fear when your lost in a hall.

They hold back the pity, agony, sorrow; they hold in the desire to “Do it tomorrow”.

 

A glove is a just a glove till it’s on firefighters; who work all day long just to pull an all-nighter;

And into the fire they charge without fear; at the sound of a “Help” they think that they hear.

When firefighters hands go into the glove; it’s a firefighter who always fill it with love,

Sometimes the sorrow is too much to bear; and it seeps in the glove and burns deep “in there.”

 

Off comes the gloves when the call is done; and into the pocket until the next run,

And though some are paid and others are not; the gloves feel the same when its cold or its hot.

To someone you’re helping to just get along; when you fill them with love, you always feel strong.

 

And so when I go on my final big ride; I hope to have my gloves close by my side,

Because like a fellow comrade, through thick and thin; my glove have always been with me until the end.
