Wings of Comfort

Wings of Comfort

my dearest guardian angel
how I love you so
never far, forever near
following like a shadow

even with many misconceptions in my life
your guiding light has always been bright
and lit the path of darkness
for the long journey that lay before me

your golden hands, soothing
holding me, bringing warmth
after the coldness of disaster
left me cringing in pain

I hear your angelic song
in the middle of the night
chasing away the haunting dreams
leaving me to sleep in calmness

and in the end, when in death
I know your wings of comfort
will again be there for me
wrapping me in everlasting peace

    Oh wow, I can't believe I have never visited your earlier work before, I am so glad that I did.

    This poem is so beautiful, and so wa4m. It really shows that comfort and protection a loved one can give us, and a guardian angel has over us. It is one of these poems that shows how angels can be here and now with us, they can be real and we can feel them around us through a friend or someone close, or someone who has been sent into our life.

    I like your wording and especially in this stanza:

    your golden hands, soothing
    holding me, bringing warmth
    after the coldness of disaster
    left me cringing in pain

    - the contrast here between how you felt, and how this person comforted you, was incredible. Really descriptive and easy to imagine just how much they were there to get you through the dark time.

    I am so glad I have my angel :) <3
