Angel In the Wilderness

I rolled across the river the mighty Rio Grande and breathlessly I gazed upon the beauty of our land The vastness of the canyons and desert color's bright 'neath that lantern ever glowing that sheds on us it's light Then later gazed the heavens at those dots across the sky the moonbeams on the water as the river drifted by There's a peace within my spirit in the stillness of the night I hear the whisper of an angel's wing somewhere beyond the light As the miles wash across my soul and shades begin to fall I sense the presence of a lady and beckon to her call Her spirit drawing closer within I feel a glow Midst the essence of an angel is a love I've come to know Diesel Dan

I am feeling the urge to go back and read poetry from earlier writing of my favorite poets today and this is the one I opened of yours Dan. I truly enjoyed reading it today and it is one of your best. Love, Carol
