This Blessing, Angel That Was Sent

This Blessing, Angel That Was Sent Past bridges he burned to the sky past trails he wanted no more She, the angel was the reason why he wanted to close every past door Never intending to get this deep found he the sweetest little thing Pray he, her heart to always keep no more with any one night fling She that put a spring in his step visions of her in his every dream Her love so great he openly wept together they were the perfect team Sun, moon and stars all were pale as her glow found his loving eyes Past sins, he never dared to tell pray he that he never have to lie This blessing, angel that was sent his redemption found in her grace Her true love for him was meant to heal him of his past disgrace Heaven, he never thought to gain now that promise seared his mind Gone were days of the darkest stain saw her, never again was he blind Angels sang with joy as they eloped she shining with her fantastic smile This treasure all he had ever hoped beauty, grace and dressed in style Past bridges he burned to the sky of past trails he wanted no more She, the angel was the reason why he wanted to close every past door Robert J. Lindley , May 25th, 2004 Note: Decided to post this poem from my private journal. Poems I have only shared with my wife.. The love of my life that inspires me to write and LIVE!

THIS was truly a blessing. My husband could never quite put it in words but he has tried to express it to me how much of a grateful impact I have had on his life. Many husbands could us a card that say this to give to their "ANGEL" on valentines day. It's a 7 from me. Much Love
