An Angel In Your Eyes

I met a long-lost friend of mine, just the other day! We hadn't met in quite some time, how long, I just can't say! We sat and had some coffee, and had a nice long chat. He was shocked to hear, my wife had passed, and wished, I hadn't told him that! He gently touched my shoulder, and looked me in the eye! "I know she's up in heaven," then he began to cry! "You were such a lucky fellow, to have her for your wife! Her real strong love, and fortitude, stabilized your life!" "My friend, now she's an Angel. Which, to you, is no surprise! Cause, I know, she always was, an Angel in your eyes!" Ralph Taylor
