It's a Wonderful Life
Somewhere in the distance
rings a silver bell,
far away, yet strangely near,
a festive carousel.
Turning cartwheels in my mind,
playing music to my ears,
throwing rainbow-coloured stardust
in a cloud of snowdrop tears.
The sweetest choir breathes a sigh,
in perfect tune it sings,
the bells chime out a melody,
an angel gets her wings.
And I can only bow and smile
and pray it will not end;
for it's truly a wonderful life
with an angel for a friend.
