Misconception About Angels by Janet Martin © 2009 So, you say angels have wings and white garments They float like a cloud on a breeze Some are invisible and some shine but aren't You missing the obvious, please 'Cause I've seen an angel and she wasn't flying Though she makes me wish that I could But now that I've seen her there's just no denying That God smiled and said, it is good This angel has blue eyes and blonde hair a-streaming As 'cross the spring garden she prances The sun on her cheek kisses smiles that are gleaming And still, with arms wide she dances Faster and faster and around and around Til all of creation is swirling Then, chorus of laughter, she falls to the ground Looking up to see the sky twirling This angel has kisses of dirt on her elbows And band-aids on both of her knees She sings to the elfins that peek from the shadows Her song like a soft spring breeze In pink flannel PJ's, with warm hugs and kisses And eyes squeezed closed real tight I beheld oh joy, what the absent mind misses This angel telling God good-night….. ….then just to make sure lest I was mistaken I returned for another peep And there they were eight years old and fourteen Two angels fast asleep |
