Angels for an Angel

Missing image

 

We ask that Angels gather ‘round to lift an ailing friend
Surround her with your loving grace and mercy without end
Heal her body, mind and soul as only The Father can
Prayers drift up to touch His ear and stir His healing hands

The name she uses is Desire, here in this cyber world
He knows the friend of which we speak, His grace is now unfurled
Prayers sent up, by those who wish, shall speed her healing days
To bring her words of kindness back, her sweet and loving ways

We await her tales of God’s fine works delivered to her sight
Her faith shines through for all to see, it makes our hearts take flight
As we hunger for our bread, we are starved for another’s love
Desire provides it for one and all, as sweetly as a dove

Dear Desire, when you return, we’ll shout with unified voice
Hallelujah to the skies, we shall surely all rejoice
Your friends ask only for good health and happiness for you
The Angel we know as our Desire, a dear heart tried and true

    What a beautiful dedication to this lovely soul! I adore this woman, the woman we all know as Desire. She has given me such a reprieve when I so needed it, when I thought all was lost. She was the one that I leaned on..... She is truly amazing! I love that woman.

    Thanks for entering this in the contest!

    Best of luck to you in this contest!

    Fortunately, she is now back among us once more. This is a beautiful, heartfelt tribute to both your talent and Desire's affect on people whose lives she's touched, Paul. Good luck in the contest, Scribe.
