Why Do You Cry

I heard a whisper so quiet in the night.
At first I thought it was my love 
coming to say goodnight.
The rustling sounds came next to me.
Then a soft warm light.

An angel appeared and said to me,
"Why do you cry your tears of pain?"
I thought I heard the softest of sighs,
When I could answer her not.

Again she said, "Why do you cry?"
I thought for a moment,
Looking into my heart.
Searching for answers I knew not.

Finally I said to her,
"I cry for the things that are not to be."
With a touch of her hand upon my head,
She told me that "dreams are for 
those who do not give up.

Dream your dreams long into your life,
Forgive those who hurt you.
Walk forward.
Never hold anything back.

Pray to God for guidance.
Walk into the sunlight.
Even when grayness fills your days.
Don't let shadows keep your
 heart in the dark."

With those words she was gone,
Taking with her that warm light.
I shook my head not believing 
what I had seen.
But the proof of her existence,
Lay upon the pillow next to me.
A perfect feather as white as purity
her calling card left to me.
Her words etched forever
 in my memory.
