Thank You

This poem is dedicated so someone very special and dear to my heart.

As silver tears fall
you're there to catch them
Into your arms, you so graciously take me
cradling me into reassurance

Only love and comforting words you speak
soothing my body and soul
Your voice is warm and endearing
as if you know nothing else

Lying with you is a blessing
something I don't dismiss
Holding me close to you, protecting me
My heart races,
yet I've never felt such a peace within me

You let me fall asleep first
I can feel your eyes as they soften
you kiss me goodnight

When I finally wake,
I know I'm whole again
You're an angel as you sleep
a guardian in your wake

I smile, knowing your outlook on such things
Gently kissing your forehead
Our eyes meeting for the morning
Silently I dub you my Guardian Angel
