The Foot Patrol : Inspirational Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

They prowl about with night sights and peacefully try to prevent further crime .

There’s no denying a vigilant foot patrol force is like a stitch in time .

Walking through streets in single file trying not to hear the babies crying .

Looking how to prevent bullets flying and innocent people dying .

They watch by day .
They watch by night
They watch the streets and hold on to what’s right .

They watch the windows of houses ,
They watch the rooftops with their eyes peeled tight .

They watch back doors , front doors .
They watch each others back and watch up ahead .

They watch for the enemy and let them know to watch out for them instead .

They want the community to feel safe and to live without fear of crime .

They protect shacks and cul-de-sacs .
They are on foot patrol all of the time .

They are the armed force called in to protect the rights and dignity
of all .

They keep the streets clean,
Crime is seldom seen because they’re always on the ball .
