Angels Among Us
Carried by the evening winds,
I heard the angel's sigh,
Just a faint whisper,
Echoing in the darkened sky.
Hidden among the falling snow,
A feather, so white.
Tossed among the tumbling flakes,
Glowing with a heavenly light.
I heard her joyful laughter,
Above the sounds of the night,
Laughing with childish joy,
Oh, sweet music of the night.
I saw a shimmer of light,
from her golden halo, I know,
Alive with the dawn's early light,
touched with a heavenly glow.
The rustling of her wings,
As she prepared for flight,
Rose above the roaring winds,
Calming them with her might.
Tangled among my white winter rose,
Was a single strand of her hair.
Filled with such delight,
She had knelt there.
There are angels among us,
Though we may never know.
Their presence a loving comfort,
As they silently come and go.
