Robert Lindley Poet Sonnet

Angel That Has Flown Far Away

Angel That Has Flown Far Away

Angel that has flown far away
dawn's soft glowing, I bow to pray
for her and yet another kiss
she the Love, her Touch, I so Miss.

This day, heart sees her smile again
my beloved, my dearest friend
I yield to these new falling tears
thankful for her, our blessed years.

She that wakes me every morn
to help heal soul that is so torn
her soft eyes shining so bright
telling me, it will be alright.

Angel that has flown far away.
Dawn's soft glowing, I bow to pray.

Robert J. Lindley, 4-16-2022
Sonnet
( dedicated to my beautiful, cherished and beloved wife,
Clarisa Tapican Lindley)

Note-

I woke at 4am. Today is the day of my beloved wife's 
Celebration Of Life gathering at her church today, 4-16-2022.
I wrote this poem at 6:24 am while commenting at another forum.
It just came to me in a bright flowing flash.
