{ ANGEL }
How does an angel with
no wings learn to fly
whose hands are full
but is still able to hold onto
her children and teach them
lessons to get by
I’ve never doubted her
patience and guidance
even when things begin
to falter she’d pick herself up
and push on with life
with her head held high
Now that I’m older and
the world moves faster
I’d hold her hands and take her
to places she’d dreamed of
when she was younger
without any reasons why
Thank you for
loving and accepting me
for who I am and where I’ll go
no matter where in the world
I’ll still be able to know
you’re right under the same sky
Thank you for teaching me
kindness and compassion
two of the most important things
for without which we’ll never know
to love another much like what
we have for you and I
