Notes About The Poem

While my Mother was making her transition from this earth, I felt the presence of Angels in her room, surrounding us with love and grace.  The room became filled with electricity and light that I cannot fully decribed.  She was completely at peace, and we were all grateful for the beautiful presence of her Angels, helping her release her earthbound body and soar to Heaven above.

Angels of Light

Angels of Light, tenderly touch her brow. 
Remove the pain that binds her now. 
Gentle, peaceful passing into the rainbows beyond, 
Where light and love meet joy and peace,
Rising with every brilliant celestial dawn. 
Release her spirit to the universe, 
Set her Soul now free to fly. 
Unshackle every earthbound debt,
And vanquish all the tears she's cried. 

Angels of Light, spread your wings 
Of Grace and Love, unfurled smiles. 
Keep me close to her heart as now 
She crosses Heaven's incalculable miles.
Release her body etheric, and 
Take her Home at last. 
Gently lay her in the arms of the
Loved ones who have already passed. 

Angels of Light, with Mercy and Grace
Remove the pain from her beautiful face. 
Open her eyes to the new horizon 
Gently sweeping upon celestial shores.
I know she'll be waiting for me 
When I fly through those heavenly doors.
