Make yourself familiar with angels,
And behold them frequently in spirit;
For without being seen,
They are present with you.

-Saint Francis de Sales

Petals of Her Life

As beautiful as a rose to see,
Was her life she lived so gracefully.
She made things prcious by her touch,
Her selfless love lives on in each of us.
The petals of her life fell one by one.
Each a gift of her heart,
'Til there were none.
Yet her radiance blooms once again
In fields of glory without end.
