We All Have Guardian Angels-
We All Have Guardian Angels-
By: Tom Wright
9/27/99
On a sunny day some time ago,
from a back yard garden bed.
A shadow moved along the ground,
coming to rest o'er my head.
I'd seen this happen many times
near the same as on this day.
I'd wipe perspiration as I looked aloft,
to find a cloud in a sunbeam's way.
This day was different, to my surprise,
for not one cloud could I find.
Unable to keep my thoughts at bay
my Guardian Angel came to mind.
Toward the ground again I quickly looked,
trying to gauge It's shape and size.
Perhaps only the wings of some large bird,
was what the Devil, then had me surmise.
Seeing not bird, cloud, nor aeroplane
the friendly shadow slowly moved away.
Could this just have been a reminder
that Guardian Angels watch over us each day?
