The Messenger

Messenger of the unknown-
Because it is known-
Just not by our time or place.

Seen and heard-
By the blind and deaf-
Moments to embrace.

A solid purpose defined-
Rules not to be broken…
To all the living things.

Both light and dark-
Beautiful and plain-
Sights with or without wings.

Stories told and untold-
Beliefs are challenged…
The work is never over.

To the living and dying-
Challenged and the free-
Often open to exposure.

No rhyme or reason-
To those who see…
The Angel by their side.

But she was there-
Superior to me…
Until the last tear was cried.
