THE LIFE OF A COP

 

 

The life of a cop is never easy

The life of a cop is an on going job

as he chose this career because

a love for protecting people far

outweighed his fear.

 

Many attempt but few are 'chosen'

For the life of a cop requires decision

'and a will to lead and never confusion.

 

A  stealth and vigilant attitude, is a must

for without these attributes, one might

bite the dust!

 

Vigilance to lead and do the right thing

He knows his life hangs in balance by a

simple fragile string.

 

Rest assured, he's ready to meet the strenuous

challenge, that requires his learned skills to

protect all life in a very delicate balance.

 

Justice must always prevail, for good people

deserve to be protected and always will

From the steady hand of a cop. His job

demands nothing less than respect for what

he does as a cop.

 

So please smile when you see the Badge

From a rigid blue shirt, Salute and say "thank you"

Give him support, and praise, because he will

not except defeat. He's a COP!
