“Sending You My Angel”
I am sending you
my special angel
on the wings of pure love
one of exquisite beauty
from Heaven above.
I am sending her to you
just so you will know
I care so much about you
and wanted to tell you so.
I have called upon my Angel
and sending her to you
to comfort, love and guide
in everything you do.
Her soft wings will gather
close around your soul
when you feel that touch
from “no where”
then you will know.
She has promised to protect you
to keep you safe from harm
to take away the dark fears
to make your heart light and warm.
Trust in your “Angel.”
You will feel her all around
in your time of loneliness
is when she will be found.

find it after she died—8/12/12.]
