Touch of an Angel

- For Mum


An angel came,

Touched me lightly.

Gentle touch of a feather,

Soft, comfort on my skin.

 

Being of magnificence,

Giving protection,

Against fears and uncertainties,

In the night's darkness.

 

Lulled to sleep,

With far off singing.

Rocked, as a baby

In a cradle

 

Sweet rest,

Peaceful slumber.

Mind drifting,

To far off shores

Of contentment.

 

In the morning, I awoke.

Soothed and relaxed.

The best ever sleep, I thought.

Then, I remembered.
