Best Firefighter Poems

I saw a lonely cloud one day.
It looked small beyond the Bay.
I tried to find a second and failed,
even though I looked each way.

Merry Christmas
Shoppers, and
Poor women and poor men
With wallets

You are the wonder.
Mother, mother,
You are there

only those who have the poem 'bite';

or at least to read it when it's …..in sight.

1. 'Eat Shit And DIE! '

Long ago I heard the expression 'Eat shit and die! '.
I don't recall who spoke, and I don't recall why.
...

I am remembering holding this book I am holding now,
reading this poetry book I am reading now, and remembering
how I would read this poet in college. Occasionally, maybe rarely.

The firefighter's stories hold many sad memories
The lives that they save is immeasurable in value
They work round the clock to save the nation
And they do their best to protect us from tragedies

She might climb my ladder,
To fight my fire by water.

A Firefighter’s Nightmare (Senryu)

California’s drought
A firefighter’s nightmare

no platonic ideals about love
and birth of love in myths and fables;
or discourses about marriages made in Heaven

Over there in the trenches stands a medic and a nurse
They have seen the bad and the worse,
They have been kicked, punched and also cursed
While help and comfort they have faithfully dispersed,

I been looing all around
trying to loose my brain,
been looking for all sorts of love
to just say im crazyin love

Robert Portella is a cherished hero
Everyone certainly agrees
He is a New York firefighter
And takes his job very seriously

Just another day.
I didn't know it would be my last.
Remember me.

The firefighter was my husband and he was of the best.
He was great, he was loved and I was truly blessed.
I was a stay at home mom who took care of our infants.
Who got great gifts and felt so loved every day and more for birthdays and christmas.

Poem on Twenty third of April Kids day in Turkey

Though there is a huge sunset everywhere
Our stars grow each day shiner than ever
...

And the most ostentatiously excruciating thing is
watching and feeling the social justice executive director
give sex, love, affection, parental trust and social accommodation
to the gang style kill thrill murderer! And the false accuser of rape.

Nothing changes your personality like identifying the killer in a news clip and then watching
while it becomes an officer and a firefighter vis a vis its transgender status. Nothing.
Nothing changes you like turning an exact whereabouts profiling of Osama Bin Laden into the FBIwithin six months of 9-11 and knowing the FBI has done NOTHING about it, while it takes them another nine years to get him while you were one hundred and ten billion percent certain it was him. It could have been a typical arrest. Not a trillion dollar war.Nothing.
Nothing makes you hate so intensely and so severely. Nothing makes you hate people and how clueless and blessed they get to be so much. Nothing.
...

I hope to see you sometime soon
Try not to miss me too much
I hope you still wish upon the moon
Times are so tough without your touch

Passed with flying colors at every stage
Determined to follow the footsteps of her family
That is the dream that she did see.

I fight with others to defend
The neighborhood that I do know.

Put me in a coffin all beautiful at last,
A gunfighter of roses beneath the
Over pass;
Dressed up and laid out there so sweet
...

I wasn't called to be like you
Or to be like my sister Sue,
I wasn't called to be like my twin
Only to look like my kin,

Were only seeking fun
A simple pack of matches
The deadly deed was done

At the lips on the goldfish
Puckering and grimacing as the fish swims in its
Bowl of sand and sink water.

anger is fear
it's boiling within me within you
beneath all the applauds
corrupting all my thoughts

On the outside
Looking up
Crashing through the door
Looking through the smoke and fire
...

Whenever I go to that sandy beach,
from my heart a sorrow slowly leaks,
like water from a vast ocean,
too much with no end,
...

I wish i was a river to quench the thirst of thirsty
I wish i was a cloth to provide warmness to the needy
I wish i was a home to shelter the homeless
I wish i was a flower to inspire the poet

Her hair was up in a little pony tail,

her favorite dress tied with a little pink bow.

birth and death
is what we all have to go though
some people may live long
but some of us won't

As the midnight drawing near,
A huge fire leaping into the air,
Engulfing the houses as it snarls.
It grows bigger and bigger.

Baby, I'm a firefighter
Trapped in a burning house
there is no way out
watching the burning love

They will always be there for you,
no matter where life takes ya,
and no matter what situation your in.

What we want to become.

Our dreams taking flight.

As we grew they tired to put us on the right path
Warning us against certain things.

In the army, oh the best,
Marching proudly on parade
With medals on me chest;

Human beings on planet earth, of course.

cacoon of greens, browns, intermintent
rays of sunshine dancing through canopy

Oh how cute, a princess
Look at this, a cowboy and a cow girl
Right behind them, a couple of Indians

They are out fighting fires
That’s why they are not home
But please don’t worry
They are not alone.

A touching version of 'Winter Wonderland' by Felix Bernard & Richard B. Smith.

Rush to the trucks

You go in them.
You're a firefighter.
I'm scared

I want to write for all the world and for my family

For the poor who is staving

burning our land until charcoal remains

The volunteer fireman, our hero and hope
...

I make my way through these hollow walls, plunging for a glimpse of light I keep seeking. Darkness blots shapes and colours, incontiguous smiles and voices echoing.
'Make me happy, make me happy' they need their fare while watching me with a continuous stare. Wings I had, which now have broken and something persuading me, my mind has awoken.
I move and dance yet I'm motionless making sure I keep sane. I murdered my daughter and stood not bothered. Yet she haunts me in my dream saying 'goodnight, I love you father.'
I'm a firefighter, I fight these fires. Flames shape silhouettes that give me a struggle.

Life is burning
Flames covering candid souls
Sun quietly weeping

our lungs are taking it's toll
there's ash and smoke so thick an air
we can hardly go out to the car

...

Flames of love
The fierce big monster
Approached,
Penetrating the woods
...

I’ve been struck by the bullet of love
Like a torpedo in a sandstorm;
A firefighter swallowed by backdraft
...

He dreamed of being a firefighter with any kind of luck
He hoped to wear the helmet and ride the big red truck
Soon they get the call and the alarm will start to sound
Excitement starts to build as their hearts begin to pound
...

Go tell them that ought to have given you light
That no matter how much a time they change their names
They remain to us a symbol of deep acrid darkness
Wolves in sheep clothing will always be wolves
...

I feel more
relaxed when I
write
I'm happy with

Long warm night
