May The Angels Watch Over You

(poems dedicated to my dear friend)

           May The Angels Watch Over You (poem #1)

 

May the angels watch over you my friend throughout this trial

The times we've shared together I shall always treasure

Angels in heaven are shedding tears for you and so am I

Watch for a miracle, have faith and believe in the power of healing

Over and over again I shall pray for you my friend

You mean so very much to me and so much more to the lord

 

             May the Angels Watch Over You (poem #2)

 

M ay the angels watch over you my friend

A sad day it was when I got the news

Y ou were diagnosed with lung cancer

 

T he thought of losing you hurts so deep

H eaven knows what a beautiful person you are

E ven as I write this poem tears fall upon the pages

 

A year ago when I lost my son you were right here by my side

N ow that is what true friendship is all about isn't it

G ood times we had so many growing up together didn't we

E verybody went their own way somehow we stayed friends

L ife can be wonderful and then it can throw you a curve ball

S ending my love and my prayers to you I hope you find comfort

 

W hat do I say to you, you've been more like a sister to me

A ll I can do is offer you my support if you need me just call me

T hinking about you tonight as I watch the cresent moon

C louds floating by just a few in the night sky

H eartbroken am I for you

 

O h how I remember the first time we met we were so young

V ery young and we had such wonderful dreams didn't we

E verybody was there and we danced and had so much fun

R ecalling the way we became best friends forever and always

 

Yvonne, you will always be my best and dearest friend

O kay sis? I love you and I always will love you and your children too

U ntil the stars fall from the sky...

wow! This is great, I loved the Acrostic a lot!!!
This isn't totally sad and I saw that inspiring feel in it...
"O kay sis? I love you and I always will love you and your children too

What a deep and power filled poem. You can feel the love fill the page and the sadness fill the heart. I'm sorry about your friend. It's so hard when someone you love is diagnosed with cancer. I know because cancer runs in my family... This was beautiful and heartfelt. Great job!!!

Ps. Sorry it took me so long to review this. School has kept me so busy and my winter break consists of work and more work... lol...

A friend in need is truly a friend indeed.

Thanks for sharing this. Its a great reminder of how important friendship is in our lives.

I feel odd about reviewing a poem like this, since it obviously comes so deeply from the heart. I want you to know that I would consider myself fortunate if someone wrote something like this about me. It's very moving.

[Salvatore Buttaci]

This is the kind of poem that I like: one that comes straight from the heart! A well-done acrostic.

What a wonderful and touching sentiment- well written- and I bow to your talent with an accrostic- better than I can do Kudos!

Awesome my friend. This was an absolutely amazing Acrostic.
I find when writing them, I sometimes think mine are kind of "stilted"
but not so yours. It flowed beautifully and one would not have know
it was an acrostic unless you looked carefully.

How your dear friend must have loved this too!

Bravo, this was fantastic!

Helena :)
