Son To Father
When I was just a kid,
I’d watch you dress in blue.
Knowing that someday,
I’d be just like you.
When you’d leave my eyes brimmed,
And quickly started to stream.
I idolized you in everyway,
And wanted to live your dream.
Now that I am older,
I realize I’m like you.
Polishing my badge,
And walking in your shoes.
I think about your words,
While filling in my blotter.
I’m pleased to be like you;
The pride of son to father.
