AN ANGEL

AN ANGEL

I know an angel

of earthly fame

many seek her confidence

 

life is tough

living can become rough

this angel understands

 

many lose hope

but her light's bright

her words pure

 

this angel

with a heart so true

offers love and advice

 

recognized truth

means sorrow

disappears

 

promise returns

her magic works

happy folks

 

all recognize

her blessing

God's messenger of love

 

the restorer

of damaged souls

this holy vessel of perfection

 

but she knows sorrow

and immense pain

more profound than most

 

suffering despite

her heavenly calling

her beauty shines from within

 

and still

she gives all

despite her grief

 

this spiritual being

a guardian angel

of hope.

Hi Yolanda - so right ... Sue is an Angel with her thoughts and caring for others ... she's a star in the sky for us all. 'Still she gives all despite her grief and pain' ... a guardian angel of hope. I sincerely hope she's getting some healing - cheers Hilary
