*~ Tears of an Angel ~*

Heavenly breezes blow the air
blooming with the fragrance of flowers.

An Angel shimmers on her cloud of bliss,
Spinning and twirling
Her dance of joy,
Her eyes bright with love.

She pauses in her dance
To gaze enchanted
By the spinning Earth.

She feels two souls
Waiting to touch
And her heart sings of romance
For an Angel is ... Love, you know.

So on this very, very special day
She plucks one feather
And watches it float down.
It spins and twirls
Like her dance
Until at last
It touches one
And then the other.
Eyes meet and love is born.

This oh so fragile gift of love
Given in the hope
that it might reveal
the joy in them
that she now feels.

Hearts merged,
Secrets shared,
Connections made,
Life is made more
Because of each other.

But oh do mortals ever really understand
This gift from Angels?
This most precious gift of love
Must be tended
Like the flowers in her garden,
Nurtured with tenderness,
Watered with tears of joy,
Weeded to keep out intruders.

The bond as fragile
As a gossamar spider's web
So easily torn,
So easily ripped apart.

Time passes as she watches.
She sees it broken,
Her precious gift of love and hope.

Her heart aches for these sad mortals
That could not really understand
That love's connection
Made as a gift from heaven
Might disappear as quickly as it came.

Her tears fall
As the Earth spins round
Until her dance begins once more
With hopes that love will bloom again.

Do you know?

Do you know on those days
When everything is wrong
And my eyes pop open not even seeing
The beauty from my window
When that awful sick feeling
Is so strong inside me there is
Absolutely nothing else in all the world
But that.
When I drag myself up
Just hoping to make ... The Feeling ...go away
Which of course it does not

Do you know the joy you bring me
When each morning you are there for me
To make it even a tiny bit possible to forget
For those minutes we have together,
The Feeling

Do you know how much it means to me
That you come
Even knowing that some days will be hard

Do you know the peace you bring me
The forgetting that washes over me
In the times we have.

Do you know that even if the day goes slowly
And things are not always right or wrong
Just a day to get through
How much I look forward to knowing, knowing
That you will be there for me?

Do you know that finding you there
Again late in the evening
The forgetting time with you
Helps me sleep
Helps me get through one more night
With dreams of hope

Until the morning sun shines again
Peeking in, the birds twittering their song
You, the sun, the birds, all helping me
Force my eyes open to face another day
With a tiny bit of hope.

Do you know, do you know
How much you mean to me?
