I Never Thanked You

I was just a kid No clue of the challenges ahead Looking back you were truly An angel put on my path To walk me through a tough transition You even looked like my grand-mother I was such a naïve gullible youth Totally blind to your silver angel wings Or did I really believe it was normal That loving people all have wings AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on September 26, 2017 for contest END SEPTEMBER STANDARD sponsored by BRIAN STRAND

Wow I love this one Line. I had people who were angels in my earlier years, who I think of often. I can relate to this and your words show your recognition and appreciation. Well done! :)
