I'Ll Cry With the Angels

The angels had wept the day you had passed Tears, unbearable, forever to last Even to this day, remnants remain On the faces of many, reflecting the pain The anguish, unbearable, disheartening so Saddened by loss that you had to go Beyond comprehension, could not understand Why you were taken, my love, from my hands Yet, each time there is sunshine, rays shining down I feel of your presence, I sense you around I cannot explain this, the feeling, the rise I can swear I can see you before my own eyes In the presence of clouds as they take on a shape In reflective blue waters or the ripples of lakes In the flowers that grow to reach to the sky In the bluebirds I watch that always soar by I smell on each breeze a reminder of you The cutting of grass after first morning’s dew While springtime lilacs may die out and fall I still smell the essence like a fragrant recall Within these reminders I keep you with me With hopes to one day be able to see Until that day comes, I know you’re beside So for now my dear loved one, with the angels I’ll cry
