  ANGELS
ALL I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT LIFE
I LEARNED FROM MY GUARDIAN ANGEL
An angel always raises your spirits.
Angels are really very down to earth.
Angels bless you; they don't try to impress you.
If we were all a little more like angels, the world would be a heavenly place.
Angels may not always come when you call them,
but when you need them they're always there.
Angels know how to light the way.
Angels walk softly and carry a big presence.
The sky's the limit to an angel.
Angels don't fall out of the sky; they emerge from within.
Angels are never too distant to hear you.
Angels tickle your funny bone; they're good for your soul.

ANGELS
When you were born you received a guardian angel...
Angels watch over you...
Angels are the guardians of hope and wonder,
the keepers of magic and dreams...
Angels keep the world safe for butterflies and rainbows...
Angels love whispering secrets and whistling in the dark...
Whenever you hear music, an angel is speaking to you...
Angels carry lanterns to help you through the darkest hours...
Angels know "love" is the only four letter word...
Whenever you are lonely, a special angel drops in for tea...
Everytime you hear a bell, another angel has earned its wings...
Angels are always with you and help you soar...
We are all angels in training; all we have to do is spread our wings and fly...
**********
"We are each of us angels with only one wing, and
we can only fly
by embracing each other."
--Luciano de Crescenzo

BE AN ANGEL
Reach for the stars.
Share your favorite things with others.
Keep your halo polished.
Show respect for older people.
Always mind your manners.
Make friends with someone who is shy.
Plant a garden for the butterflies.
Say at least one nice thing to someone everyday.
Never make fun of anyone.
Think happy thoughts.
Don't make too much noise when you flap your wings.
Always tell the truth.
Be patient with those who don't fly as fast as you do.
Sprinkle a little stardust wherever you go.

ANGELS AMONG US
--Alabama--
I was walkin' home from school
on a cold winter day.
Took a shortcut through the woods,
and I lost my way.
It was getting late,
and I was scared and alone.
Then a kind old man
took my hand and led me home.
Momma couldn't see him,
but he was standing there,
and I knew in my heart
he was the answer to my prayer.
CHORUS:
I believe there are angels among us
sent down to us from somewhere up above -
They come to you and me
in our darkest hours
to show us how to live,
to teach us how to give,
to guide us with the light of love.
When life held troubled times
and had me down on my knees,
there's always been someone
to come along and comfort me -
a kind word from a stranger
to lend a helping hand
a phone call from a friend
just to say I understand.
Ain't it kind of funny
at the dark end of the road,
someone lights the way
with just a single ray of hope.
CHORUS
They wear so many faces -
show up in the strangest places,
they grace us with their mercies
in our time of need.
CHORUS
**********
"Sometimes they come in disguise, just like in a good mystery story. You have no
way of suspecting their true identity as angels of God until, their deed done, they leave
and you are left scratching your head in puzzlement." I hope you'll enjoy these poems
and stories about angels.
