One day,
not so long ago
I sat,
contemplating
life’s inevitable sorrows
Forlorn I’d been,
for a decade now
I felt
Unknowable
Insignificant
Unrelatable
Solitary
“You are not alone”
I was assured
Yet,
my heart
profoundly disagreed
Where are these
Angels and Guides
who it’s said abound?
No one is watching over me
As if on cue,
a bright light washed over me
It seeped through my limbs
and wrapped me in its glow,
capturing my heart
An ineffable love
enveloped me
Love; Intense,
All-consuming,
Enigmatic
I could refuse it no longer
They wanted me to know
I’d been touched by an Angel
I felt the Joy of Life
And the overwhelming
Love and Abundance
of Heaven
My wealth of gratitude
awakens the light inside
that glows with unconditional
Love and Support
I feel The Light
I am Joy
Love exists through me
