The Residing Angel

Nestled inside of my heart,
Between yesterday
And today,
An angel resides.

With a love so true,
Her wings are open wide.
Waiting to help me through,
Across to the other side.

Now it seems she has nothing to do,
Today, I'm sending her to you.
Take her hand,
Let her help you through.

With her she brings
A prayer from my heart.
A prayer said daily
For you.

With her she brings my love,
Wrap it around you,
In your time of need.
Let it be a safety net
In your time of fear.

She'll have a rose for you from me,
To plant in your heart,
To remind you each day,
That come what may,

I'll love you forever and a day.

Author notes

Lionslove,

Hope you are feeling better soon. I love you!

    This is a beautiful poem. Very well structured etc. although I think line 9 could do without the comma at the end of it...

    Good luck in the contest, it fits in with the option.

      Thanks my Brother. This took a lot for me to write. Worked on it for quite a while. and now I sit and cry, as My Angel, now his, carried him to another plane...

    this is so sweet and beautiful. I really love the concept. Sending an angel from your heart, to protect the other. I like how you start almost every verse with what the angel will do. So well written!

    HER WINGS ARE OPENED WIDE!

    A beautifully written piece, indeed! It always makes me sad to hear of a beautiful soul who is sick and sufffering! You have done an excellent job of giviing Lionslove some hope, comfort, love, and peace with your heartfelt and soulful words! It is time for me to retire for the evening (I'll be up at 4 before The Rooster crows tomorrow) BUT I'll be sure to say a prayer this evening and for as long as it takes to send a healing ray of sunshine to Lionslove!
    Peace & Love!

    Angel For Rent :)

    Humm this is exquisitely and beautifully written and composed. A theme i relate very naturally.. Angels are God's true love and guidance. They are messengers of personal love and intensity closest to intimacy with God.. In your poem, there is abundance of Higher Love to touch everyone on this planet!! This line:
    With her she brings my love,
    Wrap it around you,
    In your time of need.
    Let it be a safety net
    In your time of fear
    Oufff To avail yourself in the immense inexhaustible power of love within God's nearness is continually to be conscious that there is somebody in this world just for you, bringing a smile to you and healing your wounds with hugs and encouragement. Love this poem immensely. Much love xx

    ohhhh, this is so sweet, it is so tender.
    the idea of sending your angel to someone
    else to help them through, what a novel idea.
    good job with this. and by the way, I wish I
    could send one to my friends in need also.
