Angel Sent

Two years ago, when I was down, I’d lost my father to cancer found. My life was empty and full of pain, I never thought I would feel again. One night I awoke to a startling sight. Thought I was dreaming or left on the light. A kaleidoscope of colors seen glorious in the dark, I couldn’t tear my eyes away and felt my beating heart. The room became brighter, my body began to shake, And then a clearer image unfolded before my wake. Its wings were spanned far out, from wall to wall to wall, A celestial image revealed itself, in a display of heavenly awe. Then in a perfect higher pitch, I heard a heavenly sound. I couldn’t tell just what it said but I knew it was profound, And as it happened, in the moment, I felt my body ground, For a radiant heat of golden light released my pain unbound. To this day I stay amazed by what I saw and felt. The fact that I was free from pain right then and there I knelt. I Thanked God in heaven for this miracle that I obtained, For the Angel that he sent me, gave me strength to live again. 03 August 2018 Sponsor: Emile Pinet
