It was a dark and cold night as I walked for hours it seemed. My mind whirling and whirling not able to think clearly with the clouds being so black and hazey above me. I felt as if the sky had fallen upon my shoulders and I was getting so heavy falling to the ground. Trying to hold my head high looking for a glimmer of rain to fall upon my face to wake me from this dream. Yet I walked on not knowing the direction that I took had lots of bumps and holes to go through Yet I walked on. I know not why I did I felt as if I had been swallowed up by quick sand not able to breath. Yet I walked into the night trying to find the right of way I met a stranger along the way He offered me his hand. He led me into the dawn of day with the rays a beautiful shimmering crimson color. He heard my sorrows without a interruption. So thankful I was to have him there. I had all I could bear. This I know that there are angels unaware and this was my angel that led me back. Into yet another day that the birds sing merrily at my window. |

RoseBud~ This is an insightful little piece that slowly wends its way to a happy ending. Yes, there are 'Angel's Unaware' and we are so fortunate when they come our way. Nice piece of writing, my friend. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

thank you Poutprincess , notlikely2 I'm so glad we do have angels unaware watching over us. The whispering of the winds seems to throw a light hello and everyday is new with the nature that keeps growing day after day so much beauty all around sometimes it's hard to take it all in. |
