Enticed by pleas unheard;
drawn inexplicitly by the
tugging of heartstrings,
they materialize
at times of great need
Appearing unerringly
with a gentle voice,
a feathered touch,
and the soothing embrace
that staunches bleeding
of wounds unseen
Reaching inner depths
with softness,
a quiet power emanating
from empathy’s heart,
radiating selfless,
compassionate love
Touching innermost places
hidden from view,
calming whispers opening doors
once guarded;
confronting the demons that
cower inside
Healing, from within,
wounds ancient and deep,
eradicating darkness
with goodness
and light
Anchored in humility,
singing divinity’s sweet song,
an orchestra;
harp strings plucked
in heavenly chords
Nexus of self found
in spiritual rebirth,
God’s presence
guiding the way...
Earthbound angel,
smiling face
filled with kindness
and hope
Leading back
to the Lord,
what had once
gone astray




and good luck!
