MY ANGEL
An angel came to me last night. While I was sleeping in my bed, she gave a quiet sigh. As she gently touched my head. “Worry not no more.” She said to me, “Things will be more than ok.”
Close your eyes and go to sleep. For tomorrow’s another day. I thought I might be dreaming; I couldn’t possibly be awake
Listening to an angel Must be some mistake! But as I opened my eyes, I was fully aware. Surrounding this angel was a beautiful glare
Like snowflakes all glistening in the cool midday sun As I sat watching quietly The angel said, “Your face is so pretty. Yet so sad as well. You have words to say. But no one to tell The light in your eyes has faded to grey. You love being here, but I feel in the way.
You’re a wonderful mother, lover, and wife
You just can’t put up with trouble and strife!
You need to slow down here but stop where you are
You won’t give up now. After coming this far, you need to feel loved. down and Appreciated too
Nobody realizes one thing I’m sure. Just what joy you put in their lives
They couldn’t ask for more. “loved.My eyes where still watery being half asleep
This angel promised her word she would keep. Still dazed and confused from what I had seen
I really still thought I was having a dream
All of a sudden an amazing bright light Appeared so brightly from out of the night
“I must go back now,” the angel did sigh. To look down upon you from a special place in the sky.
She took a deep breath and started to sing, raised up her head and opened her wings
Just one last glance as she turned round to me, “your guide and protection, This I will always be.”
I will always surround you. But you will never see.
