TO PROTECT AND SERVE

 

A police officer was shot

Bravely in the line of duty

And he lay bleeding in the street

From a shot gun injury

There was a lot of blood

But the wound was traced

By the attending medic

To a site below the waist

He was rushed to hospital

Where they fought for his life

And after weeks of special care

He was released to the care of his wife

Because he took the bullet

Bravely in the line of duty

The police Department decided

Despite the extent of the injury

He should not face medical retirement

His wife felt this was undeserved

As he was still able to protect

But he could no longer serve
