A Sudden Sleep
An elderly woman died in the front pew in the middle of Mass today.

Angels come with gloved hands
To carry you away
As silently we watch you go-
What made you choose this day?

One moment you were praying there,
Then left without a cry.
I wonder as I watch you sleep-
Is it you who dream, or I?
