In days of old, when knights were told that damsels Were in trouble,those brave men would ride out On their trusty steed only with a sword and sheild, Risking their life to protect them. They would also fight For King and Country, regardless of the quest Fighting bands of enemy soldiers would put them to the test.
In modern times those knights are gone, but the cause is still alive These true blue knights they call Police with their Shiny sheild and Gun, their steed is now a motor bike Which catch criminals on the run; though times Are very different now, the aim is still the same, These true blue knights work just as hard, Keeping law and order once again.

About this poem:
This poem is a sequel to "Ode To A Policeman" it is a reflection of earlier times were knights, were medieval Police in suits of armour which would later be bulletproof vests, there is a sort of comparison between the old and new. this poem reflects this.
