As They Say, You Had To Be There! Poem by Denis Martindale

As They Say, You Had To Be There!



I saw an angel on my roof... and asked him in for tea...
It was a ploy to get some proof... some certainty for me...
The angel flew down to my side... and in my kitchen went...
As if with nothing left to hide... as if he were my friend...
And so I put the kettle on... and had a little chat...
Before I knew he must be gone... and much too late for that...

He spoke of lords, he spoke of kings... and rulers of today...
In fact, he spoke of awesome things... too many to relay...
So I listened most intently... as he revealed God's plans...
He had another cup of tea... so small held in his hands...
For he was eight foot tall in height... and dazzling to behold...
And shone with such a wondrous light... amazing, just like gold...

He offered me some sage advice... and this I took to heart...
And then he spoke of Paradise... its glory to impart...
I spoke of Jesus and he smiled... he saw my love was real...
He said, 'In Christ, you're now God's child! No matter how you feel.'
And then he walked to my front door... and simply walked right through!
That's when I feinted on the floor... you know, like people do...
