Angel of Secrets
Tell me your secrets she said with a smile
And I will sit with you and rest for a while
The love she released could light up the stars
As each precious second I counted as ours
The cells in my body pulsated with joy
As all of my secrets I did slowly deploy
Her smile grew much broader until I could see
She liked what I thought with relish and glee
I hope they all happen was all she would say
Then in that short second she went on her way
I sat there quite silent with nothing in play
As the Angel of Secrets she just flew away.

ST FRANCIS
YOU HELD MY HAND SO TIGHTLY
AS WE STROLLED ALONG
AND TAUGHT ME HOW TO LISTEN
TO ALL OF NATURES SONGS
EACH LITTLE BIRD THAT WARBLED
AND SANG ITS OWN REFINE
DID PRAISE YOUR VERY BEING
WITHIN EACH NOTE IT CLAIMED
THE INSECTS ALL AROUND YOU
DID DANCE AND DANCE WITH GLEE
TO THINK THAT ONE SO PRECIOUS
WOULD CAST HIS EYES ON THEE
THE MOUNTAINS SPREAD THEIR BEAUTY
IN EVER CHANGING SHADE
AS THROUGH THE HILLS WE WANDERED
BY STREAM AND LEAFY GLADE
THE VIEWS THEY LEFT ME BREATHLESS
SO I WOULD STAND AND STARE
WHILE GATHERED ALL AROUND US
EACH LIVING THING WAS THERE
YOU TAUGHT MY EYES TO SEE THINGS
ONCE HIDDEN FROM MY SIGHT
SO THANK YOU MY SWEET FRANCIS
FOR SHOWING NATURES LIGHT
Thought to Ponder – “The reason birds can fly and we can’t is simply because they have perfect faith, for to have faith is to have wings.”- J M Barrie
