This Guardian Angel

There is a looking glass in my head That reflects images of a me, That are me, yet not me; An interpretation of me. Each image taking on characteristics That are me, And creating an embodiment, a character, That has the qualities of me, In an identity of its own… Reflection of a Romantic… White charger, shining armour Silver sports car, sunglasses Damsel in distress World order to protect Chivalry Politeness Serve, honour, protect Others first Caring, sharing Night sky Knight, spy Hellenic character Mythological champion Medieval gallant Twentieth century hero Quick to rescue Slow to take credit Happiest giving Uncomfortable receiving This guardian angel Reflection of a Teacher… Hungry for knowledge And new experiences Desperate for harmony, fairness and peace Needing to share Encourage and care Ready to show How people can grow Mentoring, nurturing, supporting success Listening carefully With true interest Genuine happiness as others excel Their success not just theirs But mine as well My reward is not money, recognition or praise But making a difference As we steer through this maze The maze that is life Can be lived in many ways But if life is loved And you fill all your days With the joy of new experience, learning and fun If you live with enthusiasm, as if life’s just begun Then my task is done well This guardian angel Reflection of a Friend and Lover... Ever supporting Never judging Dependable, honest, unselfish and yours I’ll always be there To trust and to care What’s mine is yours To enjoy and to share I’ll inform you, challenge you Excite you, and more In tune with your needs For fun and adventure But also for peace, space And comfortable silence I’ll nurture and listen With tact and discretion Reassure and protect With tireless energy Always with passion Fulfilling and giving Sensual and tactile Gentle and loving I’ll make you feel special With all of my charm I will see that you’re safe And help you feel calm All of this I do with such pleasure With a kiss And embrace from This guardian angel
