Angels
There are those who believe,
So the story is told,
That at birth you receive
Your own Angel to hold.
You come into this world
On a wing and a prayer
And throughout your lifetime
She will always be there.
A guardian Angel
Who will guide what you do,
Her pure essence is love,
Sent to watch over you.

"O, speak again, bright Angel,
for thou art as glorious to this night,
being o'er my head,
as in winged messenger of heaven
unto the white-upturned wond'ring eyes
of mortals that fall back to gaze on him,
when he bestrides the lazy puffing clouds,
and sails upon the bosom of the air."
~ William Shakespeare, Romeo & Juliet ~
When God calls little children to dwell with Him above
We mortals sometime question the wisdom of His love
For no heartache compares with the death of a small child
Who does so much to make our world seem wonderful and mild
Perhaps God tires of calling the aged of his fold,
So He picks a rosebud before it can grow old.
God knows how much we need them, and so He takes but few
To make the land of Heaven more beautiful to view
Believing this is difficult still somehow we must try,
The saddest word mankind knows will always be "Goodbye."
So when a little child departs, we who are left behind
Must realize God loves children, Angels are hard to find.
