I have a aunt who is a police officer and know many who are very well... They have a tough job and deserve respect for sure. This is a great poem. Bless you, Gina

Gina, OMG! Pray for and bless them all. Grandsons best friend's father is head of the Police Dept. here. But he no longer is on patrol, thank God. Eddie. Will be with that family while son in law has knee surgery, Honestly, ungrateful, moronic Americans killing those who protect us. Worse, mayors telling people to let Antifa harm people. Better pray.

Devastating in its impact! A FAVE for me immediately. You have conveyed a world of meaning, implication, tragedy and sorrow in just three lines, my friend. Bravo! ~ Gershon
