An Angel Touched My Life

From out of nowhere came the sudden impact
with no time to think or even try to react.
I felt the pain quickly flowing through me
Dear Lord, please help, hear my plea.

Inside the panic started slowly to begin
then suddenly; somehow, I was calm again.
I heard the familiar voices of friends and family
the looks of concern were seen so easily.

In those few shattered moments time stood still
and the reality became all too real;
take not one minute for granted, it can be taken away
CHERISH each moment, be thankful for each day.

Today I no longer worry of tomorrow’s strife
because I know on that day an angel touched my life.

June 7, 2003


I must have had my momma's will
and Gods Amazing Grace...

I'm a survivor....

Each day is truly a gift, and your gentle spirit wraps it up nicely.  I have said so many times that I wish time could stand still, but your poem made me think differently and I hope it never will.

Be well Donna~

Donna, you are so right! Angels do protect us and I am so grateful that yours surround you and saved you from possible death. Each hour is precious and a gift that we should "cherish". God bless you!

I too, was saved during a horrific car crash. Both cars were totalled. We were hit broadside and rolled over several times. I was upside down in a ravine with the car wrapped around a pole where I was hanging! We all survived! That accident changed my life as well!

Love & Eternal Light,
Linda

This reminds me of the last line of the famous "Old Irish Blessing" ...And may the Lord keep you in the palm of His hand until we meet again.

Surely He did !!

Thank you all for your continued friendship and support.  I'm really out there somewhere on all of these pain meds I am on.  I go on Wednesday for an MRI to see what more damage there is.  They have me wearing a neck collar now and again have changed my meds.  
I truly appreciate each and every one of you and thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
Hugs and peace to all.
