Guardian Angel

You always come, my Nauvoo friend
before the next big
                                      step -

that transition ahead.

How it is you know, well I can only assume

Inspiration.

Because it seems you took it upon yourself to be a guardian angel of mine.

So you always call
and then come many miles
to give guidance.

Always.

Every time saying exactly what needs to be said

so that I can not only hear, but hopefully

                 
                               
                                                         listen.


And feel what He would have me feel for this next chapter of life.

We must have known each other in the life before this,
dear missionary,
handmaiden,
and instrument.

One of the many tender mercies in my life:
