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 good-byes are whispered, joined with a fond embrace,
As duty steals her man for the dangers 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, a miracle indeed.
She's a 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.
