Lady Cop In a Suv

The other day I was a cruising, right on down the street. And I did spy a cop car, plainly marked, yes, an SUV. Now I would swear that I really saw a Lady Cop inside. A Lady Cop inside an SUV? Yes, that’s what I really saw. Now that’s a really tough job, even, at the best of times. And I don’t want to make fun of women, in this work line. I’m sure they must be tougher than all the rest, to get respect. They probably work their tails off, for promotions, theirs to get. And I sure doubt I would get a pass on any tickets, either, to be true. I just can’t shake the image, of a soccer mom, my mind keeps going to. I know it’s wrong… I know… I know… this I really… shouldn’t say… But I feel it’s right to call her a ‘Soccer Mom Cop’, some how, this way. I know… I know… But ‘Soccer Mom Cop’ keeps rolling, in my head. And God help me, she may not understand, if she hears, what I just said. All I hope is she won’t hunt me down, to lavish tickets, in recompense. But I mean it, in the nicest way; though to you, it may not make any sense.

Well it certainly makes sense to ME, Carol...I think she would have taken it as a compliment...Love the 'I know' repeats in the last verses... A very fine poem in that unique style of yours - Tim
