My Mom Works At The U

ForeverJesus7

I am proud of her,

She gave thirty years of service,

to the city of Miami.

She was an in street patrol.

She worked undercover.

She was in IA.

That was when,

she had no friends.

She was a homicide detective,

and a traffic homicide detective.

She has many awards,

including one for being,

one of the few,

in her department,

who helped the wounded,

in the 9-11 attacks.

I am proud of her.

As a teenager,

like most,

there were many times,

when I rebelled.

My brother was,

in and out of jail,

and once did,

two and a half years in prison.

Yet she loved us anyway.

After an exciting career,

she then retired,

and then entered the reserve.

Now, however, is when I truly,

must show her my support.

Now she is working,

for The University of Miami.

She is not a professor,

a staff member,

or even a student.

Now she is working,

for the UMPD.

The University of Miami Police Department,

just gained another true officer,

a Hurricane,

and a woman of God.

Now I must pray,

that she perseveres.

As they say,

It's great - to be - A Miami Hurricane,

for my mom.

    Thank you. I think so too. If you do believe in prayer, pray that she has perseverence. I am just asking a simple favor. Thank you again. Also, I read your profile. I love horses. I am just afraid of them. Haha
