Poem
An Unawakened Angel This angel will sleep forever in our Father's arms No one can answer the terrible mystery of why It is our nature to search for reasons and to try and assign blame But these pursuits are fruitless, painful and unnecessary This little angel never tasted the breath of life It was never to feel the warmth of the morning sun It never felt the soft caress of its' father's hand This little angel never knew the love of its' mother's kiss The tears of many have flowed and will flow again For there is a wrongness in a passing such as this The angel's time was not to be for reasons no one will ever know And in sorrow we gather to lay its' earthly body to rest This angel is at rest both here and with the Father It rests forever in pure sweetness and innocence It will never know any unkindness or injustice But will rest forever bathed in peace and love As the angel rests, we must learn to go on And that will not be an easy thing to do Nagging questions and unreasonable guilt will torment us And a hollow emptiness and loneliness will haunt us The unawakened angel rests forever in our Father's arms It's memory shall forever be kept in a special place in our hearts Tomorrow will awaken us to the sun of a bright new day And those who mourn will step forward into the warmth of the future © 2011 B.
