~^~ A Visit From An Angel ~^~
In Memory Of Kelvin L. Johnson
April 28,1963 ~August 2,2006
 
It was on a Wednesday Aug.2,2006
When two of the three girls in my care
were eating lunch in the kitchen
 
All of the sudden they come running outside
excited and screaming toward me
They said they'd seen a black angel in the reflection
of my turned off kitchen T.V.
 
At first I thought it was all just a game
Then the third girl went inside and come
running out screaming the same
 
They all pleaded for me to come and see
The black angel with wings sitting  in my
 frontroom with his legs crossed on my loveseat
 
I finally decided to humor them and go in,
but when I looked I didn't see anything
They all replied he's gone now,yet in upcoming
hours they were skiddish to go in the kitchen
 
Later that night the phone rang
It was my sis n law on the other end
Requesting to speak with my husband
 
She said I have some bad news to reveal
Our former fellow worker Kelvin Johnson
Was shot and found dead in the street
 
It's odd that it took me 3 days to comprehend
That the reflection must have been Kelvin
His way of letting all know he'd made it to heaven
 
Such a nice guy so full of joy
Cutting up with others seemed
 to be his life goal
 
It was his girlfriend full of anger
 that took his life
Then she turned the gun on herself
and commited suicide
 
His attempt to warn the police  
seemed to all be in vain
For it was through his cell phone
which made it harder to trace
 
It was comforting to know that he
accepted Jesus at an early age
For to be absent from the body
Is to be present with the Lord that day
 
You'll be sadly missed by family and friends
Until the day that you are reunited again
 May our heavenly Father keep you in his care
And know that your message will be heard down here
