Of all the days
That I have worked
One stands out above
But looking back, I am quite irked
You see,the President came to town
Security was tight
When you're the police there's much to do
Everything done right
I blocked the cars to let him through
Everyone aghast
I looked to try to see the man
But the motorcade was fast
I stood there with my head held high
The salute that I planned so well
I headed back to work again
Without a tale to tell...
(Written after hoping to catch a glimpse of George W. Bush but during my post, night had fallen and I only saw the motorcade rush by as I blocked an intersection that had absolutely no traffic... I did stand at attention and salute as his SUV rushed by)
