Poem: "I Felt An Angel"

"I felt an angel near today, though one I could not see

I felt an angel oh so close, sent to comfort me

I felt an angel’s kiss, soft upon my cheek

And oh, without a single word of caring did it speak

I felt an angel’s loving touch, soft upon my heart

And with that touch, I felt the pain and hurt within depart

I felt an angel’s tepid tears, fall softly next to mine

And knew that as those tears did dry a new day would be mine

I felt an angel’s silken wings enfold me with pure love

And felt a strength within me grow, a strength sent from above

I felt an angel oh so close, though one I could not see

I felt an angel near today, sent to comfort me."
