Mcthanks Poem by vern eaker

Although not listed on the menu there
At the local McDonalds I have found friends that care
You may have some in your neighborhood
Those with a smile that makes you feel good
Real employees truely caring about you
Remembering your name or the things you do
But kinder people you could not want
Than those at the Ft. Myers Beach restraunt
Some only smile others joke and tease
All seemingly happy and eager to please
Still there are the ones which inspire this poem
Going out of their way to make me feel at home
Displays of true compassion hard elsewhere to find
All knowing I'm homeless but never judging my kind
This morning two politely argue who can cover the change I was short
12 cents was needed 'I got it' 'no I got it' each would retort
Both desiring to do more than their part
Both unknowingly, filling my heart
I always have paid
Would never ask their aide
Another time offered much to my surprise
A quarter pounder and large order of fries
I know these things would break no banks
But I still desire to give my McThanks
I doubt they know
Their McLove shows
Much more than service and smiles without ends
My sincerest Mc Thanks to all my Mc Freinds
