THE DAY THE ANGELS CRIED
By Ren'ee Rentmeester=20
They streamed in from around the land, a flowing river of people, a sight so=
=20
grand.
A mother saw her daughter she hadn't seen in years. A father greets his son=
,=20
fighting back the tears.
It was the day the angels cried.
Grandmothers held grandchildren they had known only as babes. An uncle meet=
s=20
his niece with a warm embrace. A grandfather sees his grandson with a=20
queried look on his face.
It was the day the angels cried.
For years they had watched from the heavens above, raining on them=20
unconditional love. Stowing away in their loved ones hearts, until today=20
when they helped their new lives start.
It was the day the angels cried, you see, because they were reunited with=20
their family. Mothers and children, grandparents and such, crying for the=20
souls they had missed so much. It was the day when their loved ones took=20
their forever breath=E2=80=A6of everlasting life and not loathsome death.
It was that crisp autumn day when the world bled hate and moral decay, and=20
everyone thought love had gone away. But, the angels, thinking on a much=20
higher plane, knew there was reason for this unbearable pain.
The cherished souls were born into brilliant light, no longer enduring a=20
living night. On the wings of sunlight they were set free, this river of=20
souls would only feel glee. Exulted into eternity, reunited in love, the=20
angels wept openly from heaven above.
As their tears fell unto the earth with a torrential force, compassion=20
reigned freely from this powerful source. And as the grandmother hugged her=
=20
granddaughter in the everlasting sky, they realized they had never said=20
good-bye. All her life they were connected by the breath of love as the=20
grandmother had guided her from the clouds above. Silently she had whispere=
d=20
fairytales to her granddaughter's soul, and now embraced her heavenly spirit=
,=20
relieving her woes.
It was the day the angels cried.
