Today is Labor Day in the USA.
It’s a day to thank our workers.
Thank all who make life better
By their diligence … never shirkers!
Regardless of the job they have,
They perform with willing heart.
I’m filled with gratitude for them.
They carefully do their part.
During COVID we took special care
To thank our healthcare workers all.
We should continue to thank them
And all the others whether large or small.
No job is less important than another.
All are crucial for the bottom line.
Teamwork, passion, determination
Are ingredients that make the results shine.

“Poor is he who works with a negligent hand,
But the hand of the diligent makes rich.”
The after effects of COVID-19
Have left some workers unwilling
To return to the office or work space;
They find teleworking more fulfilling.

But the worker who inspires me most
Is the on the job person who strives
To make the world a better place
By interacting with others’ lives.
Yes, it can be done at home sometimes,
But what about when you want to dine out?
The chef and wait staff better be there,
Or you’ll be high and dry… without!
So, today I want to shout out a thanks
To all the workers who make life sweeter.
Here is one… our Dolly Wolly in Switzerland.
You should go to her place and meet her!!
This is what it looked like then they bought it.
Now the restaurant has taken on a new look.
And De’s husband, Andre’ is the chef who
Puts out superb dishes – he’s quite the cook!
Here are De and Andre’ with some family
Sitting down to enjoy a meal…
You can tell by the empty plates and smiles
How good it was; how it made them feel!
So, Happy Labor Day, all you workers
Who strive to serve the public with care-
Whether out in front and quite visible
Or hidden in back rooms, with work to share!
We appreciate the way you aim to please
With passion and with determination.
What you do is important and beneficial
Regardless of your chosen occupation.
Thank you!

A very fine tribute
Thank you, Derrick. All those hard, dedicated workers need all the accolades and appreciative tributes they can get!!
Inspiring testament to the gifts we all share from our labors. I’m thankful to see fewer workers still at home. We need to tear down these fences that keep us much too isolated.
I agree!!
