Everyone has had that kind of sensation or feeling,
The certain something,
That close call you almost had; then your heart is reeling.
The time you felt someone behind you,
Then when you turned around, you felt something breezed through, and felt it left and felt denied.
But somehow I just knew there was some special being there; for that fine feeling would not subside.
I recall one day driving through New Mexico all alone on a trip,
Then I noticed I was almost out of gas miles in the middle of nowhere.
When the map said no town was near, I felt pretty desperate; to the point where panic was starting to grip.
Started looking for some kind of garage to find some gas, when suddenly I was filled with prayer,
Then the sudden feeling of peace came over me,
For on the side of the road was this beautiful old little adobe church, and a gas station under a big oak tree.
I also recall the time when I started crossing the street, and was suddenly pulled off the street unto the curb, and barely survived when a car whizzed closely by.
Knowing that something or someone had just saved my life,
I did not know what to say,
Just so relieved to have made it; that I lived through such a strife.
I know now that magical being was my own angel,
Who has been there, protecting me all along throughout my life.
