Care work at Christmas 🌼❤️
It's six oclock Christmas morning,
The night shift are mopping the floor.
For ten hours they have been caring
they've given their all and some more.
And just as the new dawn is breaking
The next shift is ready to start.
Leaving their home and their family
signing their names on each chart.
Whilst the rest of the world is still sleeping
they're busy defrosting their cars,
ready to care for the elderly
each one a shining bright star.
Helping the sick and the lonely,
bringing a smile to their day.
Doing a job others laugh at,
coping with very low pay.
But they do it because they are carers,
they know the difference they make.
They are the ones to bring sunshine
where once there was only heart ache.
Holding the hand of a lady
as she reaches in the end of her life,
wiping the tears of an old man
who still mourns the loss of his wife.
Kind words to those who have no one,
guiding the ones who are lost.
Melting old minds who seem frozen,
chipping away at life's frost.
And they will be there over Christmas,
shining their light as they go.
Battling through winter's rough weather,
praying that there is no snow.
Lets stop and think of the care staff,
lets show them all some respect.
Each one is a trained up professional,
there to guide and protect.
So this Christmas remember all carers
who provide the calm in life's storm.
Filling old hearts with compassion,
keeping our elderly warm.
