As I watch you sleeping

As I Watched You Sleeping...

I became so aware
Of angels all about you
Watching and waiting;
Your appointed hour drew near.

The brightness of their light
Filled every corner of the room.
I could feel their presence strongly
and smell their sweet perfume.

They had come to take you home
Where streets are paved with gold.
There your eyes will see again,
And you will never be alone.

I miss you so much, dear mama.
But the day will soon be here
When we will be united and
Have nothing left to fear.
