Reflections for Officer Robert C. Reimann, Jr.

MY HERO

My hero is a "blue shirt"
He wears a badge and gun
Serves his public night and day,
He says the road is fun

He risks his life for strangers,
Always does his part
A modern-day crusader,
My hero has a heart

Sometimes his soul is weary,
Midnights can be rough
With little rest, he does his best
Decisions, too, are tough

Other days are funny,
Some are sad, its true
His life's about just helping out
The likes of me and you

My hero loves his uniform
He loves the risky life
He's proud to be a blue shirt
I'm proud to be his wife.
