Angels Come Down

Sometimes angels come down to make sure
Us lesser humans have compassion!

They make us look at their suffering 
As they are smiling all the while.

We are sometimes  uncomfortable 
Because we are stagnant in helping.
 
And we know not what to do 
So we look away as if we did not see!

Sometimes angels come down from above
To help us on our long journey back home.
 
To help us overcome what we are trapped in!
We sometimes escape through daydreams.

As if they will save us from our misery 
Or we don't face the facts in front of us.

Angels come to us   in many forms 
They are sometimes our friends 

And other times they are complete strangers!
That help us along our journey's through life.

But you can be sure of one thing of an angel  
They come down from above to make sure 
Us lesser humans have compassion!

There are so many different things that can teach us. If you are saying that there are angels everywhere, it reminds me of a conversation I just had with someone who was explaining Buddhist teaching to me. Life doesn't have to be all that complicated for the sincere and happy people.
