A Tribute to Angels                                                                                     November 10, 2013
By Sue Cryer
 

I believe in Angels,
They twinkle in the stars and whisper through the wind.

I believe in Angels,
They creep into a nightmare and create a dream instead.

I believe in Angels,
They sit there in the dark and turn the shadows into light. 

I believe in Angels,
They raise their eyes and wink at me when sorrows crowd my mind.

I believe in Angels,
They beckon me sometimes.

I believe in Angels,
God surely had a plan.

…I will not walk alone, not with angels by my side.

I believe in Angels,
Not everyone agrees.

…Rage and evil will attempt to clip their shining wings.
 
I believe in Angels,
Their wings are made of steel.

…The strength of a thousand lifetimes sustains their worthy souls.

I believe in Angels,
A steadfast watch they hold.

…When I am not aware, they send me subtle signs.

I believe in Angels,
They are in our midst.

…On the days when I forget this, a whisper tells me yes.

Goodnight my dear sweet angels,
Keep bright the stars above, and remain forever by our sides.
