Poem


While on patrol
Down by the beach
A shadow in the water
Just out of my reach
 
It's off a young girl
About sixteen years old
What would have troubled her
For her life to fold
 
We report it in
And await the coroners van
To unscramble this enigma
As to why this all began
 
Down at the morgue
Through her belongings we look
A bracelet we find
And her diary book
 
We check on the computer
Under the missing persons file
This girl so young
Still a juvenile
 
We sit and ponder
At her watery stray
This girl so young
She's a runaway
 
We head back to the patrol car
For we have sad news to tell
How do you tell her parents
For inside me it dwells
 
We knock on the door
And her mother appears
May we please come in
As her smile disappears
 
On the beach front tonight
A young girl was found
In the shallows by the pier
I'm so very sorry, she drowned
 
On the way back to the precinct
I'm thinking of home
Of my own young daughter
Pray-fully, she'll never roam
 
A week has passed
Since they laid her to rest
They said, look after your daughter
I sure will mam, I'll do my best
