My Angel Self

My baby is an Angel.

I know this in my bones.

As my child grows,

No matter what,

I always see that Angel,

Even when I weep.

Why, then, do I judge myself?

My Father Sees my Angel Self!

Like my Angel vision of my child, 

I know His Sight is Perfect.

The Angels weep 

To see the pain

My unkind judgments bring. 

Can I learn to see 

My Angel Self

And live 

My Angel Life?

Father, bless my Angel child

although the path seems hard.

A parent's Love soothes the pain
Life's arrows often bring.

For through the storms 

and with a parent's eyes

I have come to see 

my Angel Self.
