Those Who First Respond
Many evils untold. Where dangers do dwell. May you be guided each day by your brothers who fell.
May their wings shield your person. Guiding light on your path.
Standing eyeball to eyeball; Uncertainty’s wrath.
May their clear sight be yours. Steady breath, yours as well. Holding steadfast your hand
when you’re walking through hell.
May you return safely to your family each time. While your brothers eternal are walking the line.
