Here Are the Angels

How many times do we wonder
What lies above or under?
What happens when we respectfully treat
The creatures sent for us to meet?
We rarely look beyond the veil
So that we pierce the hidden tale
In order to see the truth behind
And to clear our foggy mind
We’ve all heard tales of angels
Saving people from their perils
Showing up with a divine word
And then flying off as a bird
What are these beings of light?
Where do they start their long flight?
Into our lives to help and to guide
And to be by our side
Where do guardian angels come from?
What do they later become?
After we die and our souls depart
Do they become of us part?
The truth is they already are
They are never near or far
They are inside us now and then
And that’s a great truth…Amen
The people who are sent our way
The ones we meet every day
Are angels in a clever disguise
To see if we are truly wise
When we recognize them well
Much wisdom they do tell
And they show us our path
Away from anger and from wrath
These angels show us the light
They are the answer to our plight
We should appreciate their arrival
For they are our awaited survival
