I'Ll Cry With the Angels
The angels had wept the day you had passed
Tears, unbearable, forever to last
Even to this day, remnants remain
On the faces of many, reflecting the pain
The anguish, unbearable, disheartening so
Saddened by loss that you had to go
Beyond comprehension, could not understand
Why you were taken, my love, from my hands
Yet, each time there is sunshine, rays shining down
I feel of your presence, I sense you around
I cannot explain this, the feeling, the rise
I can swear I can see you before my own eyes
In the presence of clouds as they take on a shape
In reflective blue waters or the ripples of lakes
In the flowers that grow to reach to the sky
In the bluebirds I watch that always soar by
I smell on each breeze a reminder of you
The cutting of grass after first morning’s dew
While springtime lilacs may die out and fall
I still smell the essence like a fragrant recall
Within these reminders I keep you with me
With hopes to one day be able to see
Until that day comes, I know you’re beside
So for now my dear loved one, with the angels I’ll cry
