When I'M Gone

When I’m Gone                                                       11-14-2011
When I’m gone an angel will love you; at no time will you be alone. My love remains surrounding you in a veil of 
protection guiding you. In the silence my whispers of love float in the air. 
When I’m gone; with every breath, beside you an angel walks. I told you, “I’m an earth angel”, now gone “I’m an 
angel above”! My love now of the purest remains in your heart. So my love when I’m gone at no time will you ever 
be alone; for an angel walks with you.
When I’m gone sleep soundly for beside you an angel lays. I watch and listen while you sleep. Taking great care 
showering you with love and protection no harm will come. Through the night dream, for my love awaits in all 
things and places.
When I’m gone an angel will love you; at no time will you be alone. If ever in need an angel will be there waiting to 
hold and comfort, helping in every way. Open your heart and experience the love of a heavenly angel. Love so 
strong it could never be parted now passes from an earth angel to a heavenly angel. 
When I’m gone my love, you still have me for beside you an angel walks!
                                                        Love Your Angel,
                                                          Debbie Knapp.

Thank you my friend. I wrote this as a surprise for my Husband. It was published and I bought and signed the book to give him just in time to surprise him for his Birthday.

Debbie, This is as near perfect as a poem can be.... Your intent far outshines any earthly stumbling in this beautiful tribute. Your heart finished the race victoriously and you are indeed an angel by any measure. The devotion and love you display here is surely coveted by all who seek contentment. My heart is washed in the overflow of your beautiful work.... May God grant peace to all who pass this way. You are special indeed.... Jake.

Funom, hi my friend. Glad you enjoyed my poem. It was a surprise for my husbands birthday. Publish and I signed the page with a small message for a keepsake in case anything would happen to me before him he would know how I felt forever! (Poem advanced in a contest and went in a book with many others). ~ Debbie K.
