An Angel Sings

Kaleidoscopes and carousels,

Puppy dogs and wishing wells,

Butterflies and white doves on the wing.

Experience, empirical,

Descends from realms ethereal

To hold us every time an angel sings.

 

Winter’s snowflakes gently fall as

Anxious mortals rush to call,

Hoping for the warmer winds of spring.

Dreams of wonder can come true

To turn your sky from gray to blue.

It happens every time an angel sings.

 

Even when the dark clouds cry cold teardrops,

Leaving lost souls longing for the light,

Like a shining beacon on the shoreline

An angel’s voice can make the world glow bright.

 

A broken heart may wonder why

It has to sit alone and cry and

Never know just what tomorrow brings.

But gentle hope is always near and

If you listen close you’ll hear

The joy that lifts you when an angel sings.

 

If you put your hand in mine

Our summer sun will always shine and

Love will greet us as an angel sings.
