Dallas = Sorrow, Adversity & Love = 2016 Poem by Tom Zart

God may place us in deep waters
But He doesn't wish us to drown.
Adversity shows us ourselves
As to others we smile or frown.

There's no better teacher in life
Than the troubles which come our way.
Adversity strengthens our minds
As we think what to do and say.

Constant success shows but one side
Of the world we find ourselves in.
Adversity teaches us all
That people love, hate, murder and sin.

Our officers line up to be remembered
As the best of the best at their job.
They wish to be needed and depended on
To save all we love from the mob.

Adversity and its sorrow bring us closer to together
When love is the source of our every need.
When we count on God and trust His will
We are able to overcome sadness, wickedness and greed.
