she took my hand and showed me around
the hand of an angel heaven bound
she alone helped me find my way
and that's why i fell in love with her that very first day

i was new where i knew no one at all
it was just after summer in the early fall
november introduced me to joy and so much more
and beauty a blind man couldn't ignore

i'll never forget that day my newfound angel and i met
a seraphim to whom i owe a priceless debt
she made comfort mine and my anxiety disappeared
as my hearbeat quickened each time she neared

everytime she drew nigh i drew in a breath of relief
an angel who erased by most evident grief
i was saddened by loss and desperation found
relieved by an angel who was heaven bound

i still recall the sweet breath of that Autumnal day
and how she led me around in a most tender way
somehow without words she made me feel at ease
and made me believe that even in the dead of winter a rose wouldn't freeze

as i surveyed the land around me i saw Mrs. O'Malley's silken sheet
blowing in the breeze on the day that angel and i came to meet
it's difficult to forget days as lovely as the day she and i spent together
a day of perfection in both her loveliness and lovely weather

an angel became my guide to lead me to a special place
a wondrous woman who moved me with every comforting embrace
it became my duty begotten to become akin to her prince
and to my delight we've been together ever since

A very delightful read with fine descriptiveness and rhyming. Everybody should be led by such an angel.

This is very different from your usual angry writes. It's a sweet tribute to someone you hold very special. Well done. Love, Kim
