Angel On Your Shoulder

We all get to choose who we are by virtue of what we do, every moment of every day. Actions have consequences. But if we choose to do the right thing in each moment, we remain on a righteous path and leave a trail of good as our legacy.

Angel on your shoulder 
By Michelle Morris 
30/11/2020 

There's an angel on your shoulder,
Guiding you all the time, 
Trying to offset the influence of the devil,
And steer you to heaven sublime...

That angel helps you navigate
Your daily twists and turns,
And helps you on your destined path
To avoid eternal burning...

For your soul is your most sacred essence,
Shining brightly when you are good,
For every positive thing you do, 
Uplifts humanity as it should...

And if you manage to always 
Choose to do what is noble,
You'll leave a legacy of light and love
For your loved ones and the globe...
