ANGEL continued from 57
And then one day, just like the tree, His Grampa passed away … No longer would the two of them Walk in the woods to play.
Michael reached his secret spot In a gentle, misty rain, Knowing that the gathered clouds Must also share his pain. And when he found his sacred place With the angel Grampa made, He put her on the little rock, And then he knelt and prayed.
“ Dear God in heaven, tell my Gramps I love him very much, I miss his hug and great big smile, I miss his gentle touch. But he told me the stars I see Ar angels in the sky, Who just like him will never dim Their twinkle in my eye. And so I ask you, please dear lord, Tell Grampa I’ ll be good, And thank him for my special gift, My angel made of wood.”
But then a strange thing happened, And thE angel moved its wing! And softly in a whispered voice Young Michael heard it sing …“ We know how much you loved your Gramps And all the things you shared, And all the time you spent with him To show how much you cared. But you should know that everywhere Your Grampa’ s still alive: He lives within your heart and mind, his memories still survive. Those secret tales about the woods And how the flowers grew, All the things that Grampa taught You thought he never knew. And so he carved me out of wood With love and tender pride To let you know that where you go He’ s the angel by your side!”
