I was touched by an angel today,
I don’t care if you don’t believe what I say.
But I had a divine experience,
Something that has lit up my existence.
I feel so free, I feel so light,
It’s like the fresh dawn after the cold scary night.
She was an elderly lady, with a beautiful smile,
So beautiful, I kept staring at it for a while.
I asked her for directions, she gave me peace,
I was in a hurry but she put me at ease.
She offered me some cookies from her bag,
We talked, she said I reminded her of her lad.
It felt nice to talk to this perfect stranger,
She may not have had wings or a halo but I know she’s an angel.
She touched me in a way I can’t possibly explain,
All I can say is she eased a lot of my pain.
I never saw her after that day,
I guess her work was over here, she had other souls to save.
Well, I’ll never forget her and her smile,
So beautiful, that I just smiled at it for a while.
