Thank You
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, ©2011
You gave so willingly your time
And never once asked for a dime
So many appreciate all you do
We often wish you were two.
So today we say thank you
For all that you do
We would like to offer our thanks
On you, we can always bank.

And More

We appreciate you MORE!

The Difference You Have Made
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
You will never know
The difference you have made.
You, in my life,
I would never trade.
Your thoughtfulness is shown
In your kindness and caring ways.
When my life was full of clouds
You brought the sunshine rays.
The words, thank you,
Just don't seem to express,
The difference you have
Made in my happiness.

People To Thank
Poet: Julie Hebert ©2011
Over the years there's been so many,
People I needed would thank.
These people are those who always rose,
Whenever I needed a yank.
If I was calling and needed some help,
These people were always there.
To pick up their hats, and jump in a stat,
No questions or even a snare.
They fought for me without a question,
They were always on my side
And when hugs were needed, I was always greeted,
With warm and tenderized pies.
I know I've thanked them, but often wonder,
Do they realize this much?
They've been my saviors, with such great behavior,
I hope I've inherited their great touch.

A Friend Like You
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

You Saved My Life
Poet: Julie Hebert, ©2011
I first must say you'll never know,
How much you've saved my life.
You may feel less but really I'm blessed,
You helped removed so much of my strife.
I was not happy and felt lost at times,
You helped me settle down.
Just being there and listening with care,
Helped keep me from skipping town.
I know you feel you didn't do much,
But I'm here to tell you, you are free.
Without your love and regard for my life,
I don't know where I would be.
So please pay attention to what I am saying,
As this is so very grave.
I must thank you for seeing what I didn't know was there,
You have no idea what you have gave.
Sometimes the people in our lives do not realize how important they are to us and how much we appreciate them.
Surprise them with a thank you poem letting them know what they mean to you.

There Are Friends
Poet: Byron Pulsifer, ©2019
There are friends who are just there
And then there are friends who really care
There are friends in the good times
And there are friends who won't lend you a dime.
You, my friend, show by your actions that you care
In bad and good times you are always there.
You're the type of friend I hope to be
You set the example I hope you see.
Thank you, my friend, for who you are
In my books, you are a star.
Thank you for your love and kindness to
I wish only happiness for you!

Poet: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Thanks, thanks to thee, my worthy friend,

Thus at the flaming forge of life
Our fortunes must be wrought;
Thus on its sounding anvil shaped
Each burning deed and thought!

We Have Been Blessed

God gives you strength for each day
To deal with those who go their own way
We know this breaks your heart
You hate to see people depart.

You have helped us all grow
We are thankful for your presence
You willingly give your assistance.

Pass It On
Poet: Julie Hebert, ©2011
To thank someone as kind as you,
Would take a lot of thought.
But thankfully I've come to find,
You're not in need of a lot.
You don't like presents or anything new,
You don't even need a card.
You prefer your appreciation to be something of helpfulness,
For someone else's regard.
Your belief is great that someone else should benefit,
From a deed well done.
With this, I can see how great you have been,
To always be helping someone.
So here we are to give our thanks,
To someone, we are grateful for.
May you receive everything you deserve,
We only hope you get much more.

Words Cannot Express Our Thanks
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
Words can never express
Our appreciation to you
For your service to country
And all that you do.
We can't imagine
What you went through
But we want you to know
We are grateful to you.
You fought to maintain
Our
current way of life
Dealing with war
Certainly causes strife.
We will always honor
And respect you for
All you have done,
And we pray for no more war.
