You, who took this daughter as your own
Who carried her cradled for 22 years
Who sat sleepless, enmeshed in frustration and prayer
She thanks you, I know, for each moment spared
Soon she may rest in a warm, peaceful sleep
Safe in the hearts of her badge-honored friends
And the hard-resolved, soft-souled vigil you keep
