(A lone voice whispers)
Like a heart's favorite childhood melody
She appeared to me
Walking harmoniously
Like Lady Serenity
Straight out of the shadows of the fading lights
As the clouds parted
As if asked by Moses
In the dark skies
At midnight
All she asks for
She said
With her bright glistening eyes
No man or beast
Can deny as time
Flies
Her opulence and grace
Lit up my face
When she appeared at my staying place
And if she's feeling kind
And kisses you
On your cheek
Like she did mine
So gently
With a candy-sweet smile
That glows with tints of eloquence and obsession
That's so deliciously elegant
You'll feel a subtle transference of energy
A synergy of goodness and kindness
Tied up in a bow
That will follow you
Like a rainbow
Everywhere
You go
Have you too
Seen this elemental testament
To spiritual redevelopment
Yet
For now this
If you haven't
Angels do appear
Every day
To the mournful guilty or truly innocent
To try to answer prayers
Which are heaven sent
For prayers
Sent up to the clouds
Must be answered
In time
And never declined
To try to stop the torture and torment
In someone's mind
So this Christmas
Find some time
As it flows
And who knows
The Angel who looks like Lady Serenity
Could appear to you
And give you a gift
To carry forever
Into eternity
No matter where your life
Goes
