"The Thin Blue Line"

There is a line
the color of the sky
on a clear afternoon

There is a line
the hue of the ocean
on a bright sunny day

There is a line
the purest shade of a newborn's eyes
awakening for the first time

There is a line
that protects us from harm
in all we do
whether day or night

There is a line
no one can penetrate
no one can alleviate

There is a line
made of those who choose
to follow a calling many do not hear
and still more do not comprehend

They choose to walk
the path of fear, hate, and mistrust
taken by so few
but marked by so many

And when one leaves this line
they leave a legacy
but the line does not break
for the remaining must still protect

There may be emptiness
a loss, or sadness
but never a hole
not in this line

This line that holds
the ghosts of the souls who have gone
and the souls of the ghosts who will be
The Thin Blue Line

I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save. I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.

Yours, very sincerely and respectfully,

Abraham Lincoln

My deepest sympathies to your family, friends & fellow Officers. May the Lord wrap His loving arms around these ppl & provide them comfort & peace in the memories you all shared. Let those memories help get you through the most difficult days a head.

Dear sister, only now you're a statistic whose memory will dim over time to others, but not to us, your family in the peace officer profession. May God take you into his arms, may the angels watch over your family and strengthen them. You will always be in our prayers.

Rest in Peace Police Officer Natasha Hunter. Thank You for your Service and Sacrifice protecting the citizens of New Orleans, Louisiana.

I Pray for Peace for your loved ones, Friends and Co-Workers. Especially your little daughter. May the Holy Father keep watch over her now that he has you to protect Heavens Gates.

I also Pray that the Wrath of God be bestowed on the drunk responsible for your death. May he forever suffer from nightmarish dreams of the hounds of hell ripping at his flesh.

Amen
