Author - Unknown

GRIEVE NOT FOR ME FOR IT HAS BEEN ORDAINED,

THAT MY JOURNEY HERE BE SHORT.

GRIEVE NOT FOR ME FOR MY LOYAL PRESENCE

WILL EVER REMAIN IN YOUR HEART.

I WAS SENT TO BE A GUARDIAN

FOR THE GUARDIANS OF LAW IN BLUE

A FEARLESS, NOBLE PROTECTOR

WITH A BOND THAT FEW CAN CONSTRUE.

WITH CHARACTER UNSHAKABLE,

AND SENSES THAT ARE WELL HEIGHTENED,

I WAS SENT TO BE A DEFENDER,

SO THAT YOUR BURDEN HERE WOULD BE LIGHTENED,

GRIEVE NOT FOR ME FOR IN HEAVENLY BLUE

OUR REUNION DAY WILL COME.

GRIEVE NOT FOR ME FOR AS PARTNERS AGAIN,

WE WILL DEFEND A GREATER KINGDOM.

The above was captured by a press photographer, a good few years ago, and is self evidencing with the 'cocked' 38 revolver.
