ANGEL TEARS

Angel Tears

Raindrops fall softly, so softly upon the earth,
Teardrops from angel eyes, rejoycing a new birth.
Jubilant at the outlook of an innocent soul,
singing melodies so sweetly, the sound carries,
as raindrops gently descend to the ground.

Ever angel tears will fall upon this place,
providing life-giving liquid to bath our sorrows.
Nourishing our crops, hearts, and souls.
Angels tears will fall for the saved,
rejoicing as the lost are bathed.
Bathed in tears fallen from angel eyes.

Weeping for those who knew no birth,
babies no one wanted. Others, by no choice of their own,
thrust into a life full of neglect, abuse, and being alone.
All without worldly love and little hope.
Somberly and queitly their silent angel tears,
Strenghth for the weak? Refreshment for the thirsty soul? 

Creating a deluge, angel tears fall in torrents
Sobbing angels, wings hanging limply,
wailing for the lost and forsaken.
It seems there is no love among men,
is there a chance to save the world?
Our problems seem so huge.

Will there come a day, when the tears of angels
are ours? Weeping for our childrens' children.
Rising from below as dew refreshing the earth.
The failing of the earth, the wars between men.
The anger felt toward others, families torn apart.
Can our angels tears sooth and refresh our world?

Raindrops fall softly, so softly upon the Earth
When our only wish would be a love filled world.
No anger, sorrow, and seperation.
All would live with peace and hope.
Greeting one another with a heartfelt,
Blessed Be! While shedding our angel tears.
