Angel Guides the Baby

You have graduated the angel was told.
You get to help guide an earth child until she is old.
The angel was delighted and began to dance around.
You have to creep in God said, do not make a sound.

The angel’s baby was delightful in every way.
She recognized her spirit guide and wanted to play.
The monitor of the child’s room showed her orb’s glow.
Her mommy came running yelling “no! no! no!”

The angel was cautioned to turn off her light.
She had to keep her orb self out of sight.
She guarded the baby until the baby joined her in heaven.
Fortunately, by then the baby was a ripe ninety-seven.

Oh my, how poignant. The researchers photographed an orb on the staircase in our B&B. It was quite interesting.

One day I was taking photos outside and when the photos were finished there were orbs in every single one. Many were white, some were yellow, some were streaks of blue and green. One was in dots in rainbow colors!
