Portrait of an Angel
PORTRAIT OF AN ANGEL
By Rodney Ronquillo
When I see your face
There's more to what one could see
For only the eyes of a believing creature on earth
Will see the face of a heaven-sent
Your presence before me
Is an eternal presence sculpted
From reference of an angel
Created in the most beautiful way
And to hear your voice
Is an eternal sound crafted
From refernce of a composition
Sung by a solo Angel in the choirs of heaven
Take one away
Take away none
If only to hold you
To suddenly become one
When I see you here
Standing before me now
It is an open door to the one I adore
Leads to a path of eternity
Walk with you
Walk with me
In my mind
For eternity
And before I die
Just one more glance
At the portrait of your face
That both our eyes will dance
And left only to imagination
Can one impression find in part
That your portrait as an Angel
Will you forver be in my heart.
