Voice of an Angel

“Love builds up the broken wall
And straightens the crooked path
Love keeps the stars in the firmament
And imposes rhythm on the ocean tides
Each of us is created of it
And I suspect
Each of us was created for it” ~Maya Angelou

Kids’ father had been overseas for more than a month. They miss him terribly. Angel decided to write an email to her dear Daddy:

Being a mother, my heart melted, my brain tickled, my mouth chuckled…

But being her language educator at the same time, I fainted…
