Touched By An Angel

My soul was touched by an angel
Bringing me comfort and peace;
In the still hours of the night
I felt the day's tension release.

I was so aware of her presence
Heard the flutter of tiny wings;
I felt such joy in my heart,
By the love a sweet angel brings.

She soothed my furrowed brow
With a gentle touch on my face;
Whispering words of love
She was truly my saving grace.

The worries of the day receded
As the angel drew close to me,
And from the light of the moon
Her beautiful face I could see.

The radiance of her smile,
Was such a breathtaking sight;
I felt so safe in her presence,
As she softly whispered "Goodnight".
