MY ANGEL
Always watching
^^*^*
We lit the fire to warm the night
As the snow fell to the ground.
A church bell in the distance
Was the evening’s only sound.
We drank some hot, sweet cocoa
To warm our weary bones,
But as I watched the fire
I knew were not alone.
I saw a small faint shadow
From the corner of my eye.
I found no need to wonder
Where it came from, how or why.
I had seen “him” many times before
When I felt my faith was spent.
I had begun to wonder
Why he left and where he went.
He smiled and my heart listened
At the things he had to say.
He said he’s always with me
All I need to do is pray.
God decides just where and when
His “angels” will appear.
But in know now, in my heart and soul,
My angel’s always near.
