Angel Of The Blue

 

I knew he was an angel,

For his hair was of gold,

And when I looked into his eyes

I knew that he had been an angel from times untold.

 

Upon his blue chest

His badge still shined so bright,

And within its silver and gold,

Danced flickering starlight.

 

The words to serve and protect

Were woven into his shirt of blue,

And pride and honor

Were woven there too.

 

Silhouetted against

The soft moonlight,

His wings seemed to whisper to me

I’ll walk with you this long night.

 

Though there was glory for him in heaven

He choose an earthly beat,

Watching over his brothers in blue

As they walked the dark streets.
