An Angel Walks For You

Close your eyes
And dream you had wings
For you were graced 
And the harps did sing

All around you
In the celestial sky
Are the gracious of many
Let me tell you why

For we can not see
What we want there to be
For out there
Winged angels are free

They are hidden shadows
But covered we are not all
For life is living
And some of us fall

Live your life
And live it true
In your background shadows
An angel walks for you

Maybe it's what I think that is greater, for I write about things that have never been written. Just maybe inside, there lies a heart, that simply hasn't been smitten. I've yet to meet that angel. Once again, many thanks for your comments Olive, they indeed resonate around me, James :)
