Police - Remember Me As I Do My Duty As Sworn Poem by Paul Warren

Remember me when the day is over
On the streets as the cars turn their headlights on
Remember me when a lost child is found
And an anguished parent hugs them in sheer relief
Remember me when a woman cries in despair
As her husband is taken to account for his actions
Remember me when your possessions are stolen
And they are returned to you in your satisfaction
Remember me when I pull you from a crashed car
And you are restored to your life when you may be lost
Remember me as I wear the blue standing for you
Some days alone as I do my duty as I have sworn.
