MY ANGEL
   _________________
I have walked on the waters,
  with the help of Angel wings.
I have been to the symphony
  where the Great Angel sings.

I have soared through the Heavens
   where Angels make their home.
I have peered through windows
  to witness their Righteous nome.

I have danced in a garden
  with clouds by my side.
I have espied the resting place
  of the Great who have died.

I have felt the coercion
   from the serpent of old.
When he has held before me
  his ornaments of gold.

I have fallen to his power
  to battle and rise anew
Then I’ve toppled again,
  another time or two.

When this day reaches its end
   I hope the Angels will sing.
And place me gently in the sky
  with a soft and loving wing.

I will look upon the earth
  and know we are truly one.
I will wait until you get here,
  then we will have eternal fun!
