The New Guardian Angel

The New Guardian Angel

An Angel appeared to me one night
While I laid awake in bed.
He smiled at me, then began to speak
and this is what he said.

" I've come to take you away from here."
" You're going where you'll be safe."
" You don't have to suffer no longer"
" For the Lord has prepared you a place."

When he spoke,
he spoke with heavens voice
soft and musical sweet.
When he smiled it was like the rising of the sun
and his hand he held out for me.

I wasn't even afraid of him
But it seemed I was glued to the bed.
I guess because he was beyond beautiful
with his glowing halo upon his head.

He wore a robe of pure Ivy white
trimmed in thick and shinny gold.
His wings looked softer then cotton
and on his feet he wore golden thongs.

He slowly glided toward me.
Leaving twelve of golden dust behind.
Everything sparkled that was in his path.
And it nearly made me blind.

When he reached the foot of my bed
I then was once again able to move.
He said." Come now child. he's waiting
And he has chosen you.

"The Lord has heard your many prayers"
"He knows you have suffered long enough"
"So he is now calling you home child"
" Because in him you placed your trust"

I took his hand quickly then
Because I didn't want to miss my chance
I asked him what was I chosen to do
He said."Be patient the Lord will explain."

I made it to heaven happily
and found out what I was chosen to do
My job is now to keep people safe
I'm now a Guardian Angel too.
