Poem
She prayed each night For a sign that life Would improve her lonely plight Night after night She prayed and prayed Until she heard a voice one day It asked to be invited in So he could offer her a blessing And when she did she felt regret As she felt cold hards around her neck And as she gasped and fought for breath This demon from the hellish depths Throttled her very life essence out And as she was fading from sight She closed her eyes and prepared herself And vowed to live God in this life and the next When the hands around her neck went loose And as she viewed around the room A bright sight and a figure of iridescent light Stood over the demon that was no longer alive Slain by this angel with a lightning whip A crack and flash of light had done the trick The lifeless demon had been parted in two From devilish head to twisted toes The wretched creatures life of woe Was now at an end. The angel turned and looked at the woman And words filled her head without it uttering a sound You, when very close to death vowed your allegiance to God And this is something God does not forget You may have thought you were forsaken But in the end you were mistaken But know that signs of a better life Are everywhere, if you look they're rife Stop depending on divine intervention to improve your lot You have a life and free will thanks to God Now go look and discover all you need Be the light and the love for all to see Sow hope, kindness and compassionate seeds And you will the reap the life you need You only get out what you put in When desperate the demons will trick their way in So be cautious in all you do And know that God is always within you. The angel left fading away Leaving the woman going over what it had to say The demon was gone And now she was alone What to do now she could not say But she would now endeavour to make a change And go finding the signs that would bring about for her a new age.
