Life's Grand Design

Doctor caring,

Detective bright,

Now together,

All feels just right.

They would not go,

They would not leave,

Stay together

In case of need

Cases may come,

Illness may spread,

Clients be lost,

Patients are dead.

Words will lighten,

Hands will support,

Safely at home

In their joint fort

One is thought dead

For three long years,

But he returns,

Allays all fears.

Sickness be cured,

Injuries healed

Nightmares depart,

They are not real

Loyal comrades

Steadfast allies

They cannot stand

The other's cries

They cannot grasp

Life's grand design

But give thanks to

Be side-by-side

Time doesn't change

Their affections

Distance won't end

Their connection
