THE WHISPER OF
AN ANGEL
The whisper of
an angel
Can open Heaven's
gate,
A glimpse of
faith and courage
A love strong
enough to wait.
Whisper you are
safe
Whisper softly,
angel love,
My heart is aching
so
Needing comfort
from above
Tell me you are
with me
Whisper gently
in my ear,
"You will always
be my mommy"
In the quiet
I will hear.
My heart still
aches to hold you
I close my eyes
and see,
Your face now,
four years later
And who you were
to be,
Though dreams
I once held close
In the distance
now, so far
Still you're
more than just my child
You're the twinkle
in the stars,
So I'll hear
your angel whispers
"You never need
let go,
Hold me, mommy,
close within"
Though the pain
and sorrow flow,
One day we shall
reunite
Angels whisper
words of grace,
And I promise
I will hold you
in another time
and place..
