A
Day in the Life of a Policeman's Wife
The day, as many, starts the same
With breakfast, school and
such.
He's asleep, the house is calm,
I miss his loving touch.
I sneak a peek at him in bed,
His sleeping form is still.
He is safe at home with me,
He'll stay that way until-
The night shift starts as people sleep,
I lay awake and pray,
That God may watch him as he works,
And bring him home okay.
I have learned that life is fragile,
It only takes one call,
To take away the one you love,
Or see his comrade fall.
So whether it's an evening,
Or afternoon or day,
My thoughts are with him as he works,
I stay at home, I pray.
For now I know each days a gift,
that's given every life.
Each day more precious, just because
I'm a Policeman's Wife.
Silent
Prayer
She'll never forget that night
The one when duty called
The tone of his beep, beep,beeper
echoing down the hall
As he read the words
displayed She could see his energy rise
And before he even spoke
The tears welled in her eyes
She succeeded in disguising
her fears by helping him prepare
She gathered his boots, his belt,
and all his tactical gear
She did not ask the questions tearing
at her soul
The answers she needed
to fill the now existing
hole.
So, Instead she remembered
the years they'd spent
Counting one by one
And prayed to God in silence
to guide the man that she
loves.
Policeman's
Wife
A
special kind of woman:
A cut above
the rest,
That's A
POLICE OFFICER'S WIFE,
rating her
the best.
How many goodbyes
are whispered,
joined with
a fond embrace?
As duty steals
her man,
for the danger
he must face.
How often have
meals been ruined,
or tender moments
disturbed,
by a call for
a special duty,
sparking loyalty
unswerved?
for an angel like
this,
Who, for the love
of her man,
must forsake that
kiss.
She can run a
garden tractor,
even paint a room
in need,
How she can stretch
a dollar-
is a miracle
indeed.
She's a mother, lover,
chauffeur, and
nurse,
A living symbol of:
Rich is
the man,
reaping
his rewards in life,
who chose to be
the other half of
A POLICE OFFICER'S
WIFE.
