Another day has come
To put on the badge and gun
To stand proud and tall
To prevail over all

Another bad guy off the streets
Fighting crime in the summer heat
Trying to keep the city safe
Through all the pains and aches

A baby cries long into the night
The mother doesn’t treat her right
Put the mother behind bars
Hoping now the child will go far

Years and years down the road
As the child has grown old
She looks up to you
Knowing what she wants to do

Finally her day has come
To put on her badge and gun
For her to stand proud and tall
Her day to prevail over all

A very uplifting poem.  Sounds like the victim prevailed in the end and the story ends with a happy ending.  Justice is served in all situations eventually.  Great write.
