Angels Without Wings

Angels Without Wings Sometimes there are angels at our doorstep Who are sent from heaven above Angels from Earth, at our doorstep Who are here to guide us and show us love They often show up in the darkest night When danger is just around the corner And nothing seem to be going right Believe in love, mercy and the avid learner There are things which are not easily understood When in a life-and-death situation Think of all the people who could help, and that eternal good This is not the only time to call on the master of creation If in the raging ocean and drowning in the sea of despair Sinking deeper into this place of no return A powerful hand that seem to guide with great care Suddenly, gasping for air upon the sands, the flesh to burn A man who stands beside that almost life-less body, he is heaving and shaking To smile, walk away and disappear into the distance It must be a Heavenly or an Earthly angel in the making Happy to rest on this beach, without any resistance William Morrissey 9/25/07
