an honoured place

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



Where wings of glory
Meet humble eyes
On eternal day
Distant from the cries
An angel who was proud to say
His God of love
Was on his way
Lifted his hands
In adoration, to pray
And welcome in
His majesty
My son he said
Our fait will now lay
this pathway of
Security
So boldly stand strong
and let them be free
For their will alone
Is empathy
And I know
That their love will always choose me
Drama or none
Infinitely
It is...
my dearest prophecy
You keep them close
To Love's trinity
I am forever gratefully,
Your divinity
