A Police Officers Wife

A special kind of woman; a cut above the rest,
That's a Police Officers wife, rating her among the best.

How many goodbye's 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 special duty, sparking loyalty unswerved.

It's a devil of a job, 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 mother, lover, chauffeur and nurse,
A living symbol of: "for better or worse."

Rich is the man, reaping his rewards in life,
Who chose to be the other half of
A POLICE OFFICERS WIFE.
