The one called Margaret, is a poem my ex wrote, but through my eyes. 

My Angel

You taught me all you knew

And hoped that I had listened

Believe me when I need it

I hear your words of wisdom

You gave the world a blessing

Every time you smiled

The world gave me a blessing

Because I had you for awhile

Though there is sorrow in my heart

I’m at peace that now your free

To fly amongst the angels

Where you were destined to be

I know someday I will see you again

And we will laugh together and hug

Until then I know you will be there

Smiling down on me from above

I will always love you, That will never end

You will always be my Mother,

My Angel and My Very best friend

Margaret, The Angel

 The day has come, and the movers are here

I turn around and realize that time is near,

To say goodbye, to smile with tears,

For a memory that was shared long ago

As I pack the last box

And genlty close the door to the car

I stare at the home that was once my mom’s

Then I remember something she said

For as a child I swear I felt spirits

I thought I saw ghosts

One time when I was really scared

My mother said, “don’t worry dear-

It is only the angels looking out from above”

Yes-that is one of many memories

Many moments that can never be replaced

Her calming voice and gentle spirit

Always soothed my soul

Now the new mom is here

With kids of her own, she smiles

Gives me a wave then moves her things in

But I have to let her know

“This was another mom’s home

 A place where all were loved

No matter who, no matter what

She was there with a smile and a hug

“So if your children are ever scared

 And they hear the faint sounds all around

They feel a touch soft as a dove

Hold them gently and tell them “don’t worry……….

It’s Margaret, The Angel –watching from above”.
