J.M.J.

IN A DAY OF AN ANGEL

I FLUFFED UP YOUR PILLOW AS YOU LAY DOWN YOUR HEAD

AND KNELT THERE BESIDE YOU AS YOU SLEPT IN YOUR BED.

I TUCKED IN YOUR BLANKET SO THAT YOU WOULD BE WARM

AND WATCHED THRU THE NIGHT TO PROTECT YOU FROM HARM.

I WISHED YOU GOOD MORNING WHEN YOU FIRST AWOKE;

YOU YAWNED WITHOUT HEARING ANY WORD THAT I SPOKE.

I TURNED ON THE WATER AND HELPED WASH YOUR FACE

AND THEN MADE YOU BREAKFAST BEFORE YOU SAID GRACE.

AND AS YOU PREPARED TO PLAN OUT YOUR DAY,

 I PATIENTLY WAITED WHEN AGAIN YOU WOULD PRAY.

I WILL ALWAYS BE HERE TO PROVIDE YOU PROTECTION,

BUT IT IS THRU YOUR PRAYER THAT YOU STRIVE FOR PERFECTION.

AND AS THE DAY ENDS TOGETHER WE’LL SAY

A PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING FOR GOD’S GIFTS OF TODAY.

AS YOU REACH FOR THE SWITCH TO TURN OFF THE LIGHT,

I WILL GIVE YOU A HUG AND WISH YOU GOOD NIGHT.
