To My Guardian Angel


To My Guardian Angel

 In a moment of surrender
You enter my chamber
Your perfume permeates the space
In between the second hand 
of ordinary time
I am lifted up to greet you
I relinquish all possessions of self
My name, my mask
All identifications fall to the wayside
I am ready to be united with your presence

As a guest in my home, 
I regret I am not the perfect host
At times I overlook tending to your every needs
In a split second, though, 
I am reminded of your presence
You send a glance, and my eyes open
You sing, and I hear
You enter my heart, and I am full of love

With a gentleness of touch
Stillness of glance
I celebrate life knowing you are by my side
