Written for my Crazy Angel.
Reggie ...” He laughed when I read him this.
and said he would smile all day”
and Promised he’d take care of himself.

CRAZY ANGEL
He is good-don't take him away
He is loud, don't silence his noise.
He is talking when you’re talking.
when you are saying your say.
Crazy angel, takes care of everyone but himself.
Always going way out of his way, to protect and direct:
At your feet; He holds the lantern,
this has always been his pattern.
He won't let you stumble nor go astray,
no judging others as he lights their way.
Too good he is, his heart is a cliché' ...
"A heart like gold": That is to say:
He is loud, don't silence his noise;
He is good-don't take him away.
When the plane is going down,
"who must get the first mask",
I asked- "you, or the baby in your lap"?
Of course, he said "the baby".
But that answer was wrong:
"Who'll save your baby, and everyone else
if you are the last one, that is unmasked”?
We may be left at the mercy of the Sylph:
The first law of saving others, Is to first;
"Save Oneself".!!
