174. To Our Angels

We give great praise to your little group
Spirited warriors who assist with our travel
You help us plan our trips with care
For air, sea, rail and even on some gravel

You’ve always been there to help us through
Despite the requirements or time you are given
You take care of those things we don’t know
And remind us not to pack things that are forbidden

Where would we be without your service
Especially when we’re stranded in despair
Like angels appearing from the light
You get us home and show you really care

While some may complain and even rant
That they can do better on their own
It only takes once for them to need your help
And you’re forever trying to get them off the phone

We know we’re not always happy or pleasant
Especially when travel plans go upside down
But with your expertise and corrective responses
You always create a smile from a nasty frown

So this we say with our clapping hands
For the all things you say and do
We are thankful for your patience and help
There’s no way we could survive without you
