Her wings how scorched they became Shedding light to others from nigh to day Everlasting in her love, to each she became just what was Needs fulfilled tenderly, each touch caress a measure of love To give of herself destined she was She gently caressed each brow before her hand with love Guiding and leading in her wake the brightness to her quake
She was sent from heaven above To soothe the aching of one love But evil had its day, taking apart another love start The lord let her sit there and ponder, to know the love hath gone under He let her be the light to which others might see If only a glimmer of what was to be For she was his child, to touch upon others a light without guile An angel in child’s form bringing light to darkness in her stumbles
The Lord he had plan’s for this little angel he sent Her golden hair to flow in heavenly glow The years spent in youthful assent To other’s pain she may ease, with mercy he had sent thee The Lord he decided a gift she so deserved To show her the love that he so held for her Angel’s needing reminding of the Lord’s full grace And angel to her he sent in his place, to love and to hold and cherish his kind
He gifted this angel with the greatest exhaltation That which his own dear mother had truly blessed To give of one’s own true flesh for the world full of sin and digress This angel how she did stumble upon this one tribulation To know the ache and pain human heartache can endure Weathered from one heart must be torn the love of a mother be born King Solomon’s wisdom placed on the mantel True mother give of her child for a child’s life is to be
This angel stumbled and clamored so Life blood of humanly disgrace unfold She screamed and she shouted turning her back so as dark clouds withered below The stumbles, the falls, the heartache, the pain Human desires to be of no blame Evil words written to offend an angel of the Lord turned in sin The wreckage of such a young seraph wings broken under such shame She raises her weary head in exhault, Lord I am no good without thee, Holy Holy Holy is thee
Tears flow in humanly form down the bosom upon her sworn He reaches his hand in loving kind brushes the tears once again for thine Reach out once again dear angel to one that I want to be mine He lifts her just a bit to look back out to this evil pit Raise a light it must be to be planted for me Not once, not twice, but three times a must in stumbles of the dust Burning brightly one must to break the chains of the crust Bring hope and forgiveness to this fight

About this poem:
this one has taken a bit, I could feel it inside but the words at times would get stuck. when I write I try to let things just flow and it took several times coming back to this one.
