Angels

Melissa Vickers 1982 (Daytona)

Ode


An angel took me by the hand
To the most beautiful land
This is now my paradise
My new home shall suffice.
He walked me down the streets of gold
Where never again I shall grow old.
God takes care of me now
So move on with life and take a bow.
For you have done for me so well
I can't thank you now but soon I shall.
My love is sent to you from above
On the wings of a snow white dove.
