On the Wings of An Angel

On the wings of an angel
I will fly
my heart freed
from that spirit on high

No more am I teathered to the ground
I see clearly
my body left behind
still love goes on forever and all around

In this place of softness and light
I still hold you
with all my might
you will always be in my soul

I view earth now from this ethereal plane
fragile and blue
and somehow so deeply
unguarded and in pain

I will call upon other angels
to love earth to health again
for she was our mother
who sustained us through the rain

So on the wings of an angel
I will fly
to the higher ground
in the azure sky
