The path that I choose <br />Comes with a heavy burden <br />This path that I walk is <br />Colored blue so that others may follow <br /> <br />The path that they have chosen <br />Is marked by a thin blue line <br />It is so brightly colored <br />So that others who choose know the way <br /> <br />This is the way of Honor, Integrity and Service <br />The honor is always seen <br />But never returned <br />It is the thin blue line that we walk <br /> <br />The thin blue line can not be straddled <br />It is walked proudly with integrity <br />Never bending to one side or the other <br />It is the thin blue line what we walk <br /> <br />The thin blue line is never broken <br />Where one may fall, another steps up <br />To be of service where one had fallen <br />It is the thin blue line that we freely walk<br /><br />Robin Conley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-thin-blue-line/
