It sounds like thunder far away, but the skies are blue and bright...
And soon they crest the hill nearby, and ride into our sight.
They shake the ground with powerful sound, and they make some hearts beat fast...
They look so proud and noble, like Knights come from the past.
Side by side, they always ride, and seem to move as one...
From early in the morning light, to the setting of the sun.
And children point and wave to them, from cars that pass them
and young ones ask their parents, why the officers have mirrors for eyes.
They ride the roads, and fight for good, and defend small ones like you...
They ask to ride, and do with pride, and sometimes they are few.
Like officers of steel, on Silver Wings, they sparkle in the light...
then with a roar and rumble, they ride out of our sight.
Sometimes when one has fallen, never to ride again...
You can hear the others calling, like thunder on the wind.
Side by side, they slowly ride, and their thunder is a mournful sound...
And the mirrors hide their eyes from us, when teardrops fall to ground.
So if you see one riding, and you look into his face...
You see your reflection in his eyes; you know that you are safe.
For motor officers are a special breed, they love to ride the wind...
And when you hear the thunder boom, the fallen ones ride again

Thank you for your service.

ITS SOUNDS LIKE THUNDER FAR AWAY...

It sounds like thunder far away, but the skies are blue and bright...
And soon they crest the hill nearby, and ride into our sight.

They look so proud and noble, like Knights come from the past.

Side by side, they always ride, and seem to move as one...
From early in the morning light, to the setting of the sun.
And children point and wave to them, from cars that pass them by...

And the mirrors hide their eyes from us, when teardrops fall to ground.

So if you see one riding, and you look into his face...
You see your reflection in his eyes, you know that you are safe.

Daddy,
There are so many things I still have left to say to you... It was too early and I never would have thought in a million years that Wednesday would be the last day I got to hear you say I Love You kiddo. Wow, I'm really going to miss that... I feel like I should have been there more like I let you down in someway or another... Daddy, you mean so much to me... You're my hero and you always have been. You'll always, always be with me and I know that... You kept me safe and loved me before I was even a part of this earth. I plan to do the same with you since you're not here now. Daddy I Love You.... I want you to know that. You are an amazing person and an even better dad... You'll always have the BIGGEST part of my heart and I'll never let that go. I'm going to make you proud daddy. I mean that. If nothing else, I'm going to make you proud...

I Love You Daddy! I Love You.
Your Daughter....
