The visit of an Angel

Angels come and touch you
they open you up to yourself
to live to be the special one

feather like and brief
their visits are at times
when the conscious guard is down

You learn and choose a better way
to express what is contained
inside your mortal frame

Each visit ephemeral and light
is profound to those who see
for those souls touched with mystery

there is sadness each time they go
the glimpse allowed of your truth
requires a trust in their good intent

it needs you strong and knowing
knowing if needed they will return
they may look different or the same

However they appear welcome them
their lessons are ancient and wise
enjoy them and be with them gently
