An angel for me!

by james edden   Dec 17, 2007


Imagine a girl so caring and sweet
Who lights up your skies and steadies your feet
Imagine her smile so gentle and kind
Like the touch of an angel, a blessing to find

Her presence was alluring, nothing more could one know
She flew from the heavens and landed below
Brought with her a beauty, matched by no other
Like a rose without thorns, who could find another?

Through ice and through shadow a light came to me
This angel shone a beacon and the world i could see
Rain was my sunshine and winter my spring
The clouds; they would vanish and the birds; they would sing

Her eyes gleamed with starlight and her skin was so fair
Her grace was immense it was hard not to stare
She showed me compassion and such kindness as well
Do angels have names? She did - Miss Fell

We laughed and we joked, wish those days would never end
My life it had taken but I'd found my best friend
Our eyes; they would meet and she'd take me away
To the heavens she came from...I wish I could stay

Our friendship is special, our time is pure bliss
And the times she was with me I do sorely miss
We'll cherish the moments that bring us most fun
'Till the end of our days and dead is the sun

Darkness surrounds a deep obscure mind
She conceals a pain and it's her I can't find
My heart bleeds with worry, is there nothing I can do?
But my angel cries in silence and now we're both feeling blue

Forever I'd stay to soften her tears
Protect her from danger and stifle her fears
I'd always make her smile when life got too much
Lift the world off her shoulders and her heart I would touch

'Till August what becomes when my love flies away
Back to above where I hope she will stay?
The world turns to shadow, the world turns to ice
But I know she'll be happy and that will suffice

You've taught me to love life and that I shall do
But life's a mere passing and I shan't forget you
And when I grow old and live to Ninety-Seven
I shall die happy, knowing I'll find you in heaven...

    It's not meant to have a point, it's meant to be obscure...that's the POINT. If you're going to make criticisms like that I suggest you read more poetry first.
