ANGEL IN A WOOD
I CAME UPON AN ANGEL
WHILE WALKING THROUGH A WOOD
SHE WAS TALKING TO THE FLOWERS
AND TEASING THEM WITH LOVE
I BATHE WITHIN THIS VISION
ENCIRCLED BY ITS LIGHT
WHEN THE ANGEL TURNED TOWARDS ME
AND GAVE A SMILE SO BRIGHT
SHE WELCOMED ME TO NATURE
AND BECKONED ME TO STAY
THEN SHE OFFERED ME SOME NECTAR
AS ON A LEAF IT LAY
IT TASTED JUST LIKE SUNSHINE
ON A WARM AND SUNNY DAY
AS I WALLOWED IN THE MOMENT
AND HOPED THAT IT WOULD STAY
BUT ALL TO SOON IT FINISHED
AND I WAS QUITE ALONE
AS I STOOD THERE IN THAT FOREST
THAT ALL THE TREES CALL HOME
DEFINING MOMENT
ONE DEFINING MOMENT
THAT DWELLS WITHIN EACH LIFE
THE MOMENT THAT WE’RE MADE FOR
THAT CLEARS THE WRONG FROM RIGHT
IT MAY COME IN THE MIDDLE
OR RIGHT THERE AT THE END
BUT IT’S WHAT EACH PERSONS BORN FOR
AND NOT A THING TO LEND
YOU MAY NOT KNOW THE MOMENT
WHEN CALLED UPON TO ACT
BUT YOU KNOW YOU’RE GOING TO FACE IT
FOR SURELY IT’S A FACT
IT’S THE PATH WE HAVE TO FOLLOW
TO GET UP TO THE END
THOUGH IT MIGHT JUST TAKE A LIFETIME
WE ALL GET THERE MY FRIEND
