God Needed Another Angel

God 
needed
another
angel
so
He
took
you.
So
be
good
kind
and
respectful.
Mind
your
manners.
Always
remember 
to
say
please
and
thank-you.
Let
the
littles
go
first
and
be
helpful
to 
them.
Clean
up
all 
the
messes
you
make.
Brush
your
theeth.
Take
your
bath
and
be 
sure
to
clean
behind
your
ears.
Never
use
cross
words.
Always
share
your
toys
and
take
turns.
Before
you
lay
down
at
night
Bless
everyone
in
your
prayers.
God
needed
another
angel
so
He
took
you.
My
mind
asking
why?
My
heart
broken
beyond
repair.
The
pieces
have
been
blown
away
from
the
mighty
winds.
You
were
just
on
loan
to
me
from
God.
Now
He
needed
another
angel
so
I
had
to
give
you
back.
God
needed
another
angel
and
He
choose
you.

Interesting format for a heartfelt poem. To lose a child has to be one of the hardest things to bear. The emotion comes through your words. Blessings to you for sharing this poem with us. Karen

It's always a mystery to me why God chooses to "lend" children. I had tears in my eyes reading this. I hope this is not about a personal experience, but my heart goes out to all parents whose children become "angels." Love, Carolyn

Rhonda, such sweet emotion as this is surely why the aliens envy us.....(I couldn't help the cliche) but it was either try to lighten myself up after reading this (I have a lot to do today)or run amok, sobbing in the streets below. snap...I'm ok now! well written! Rhonda! you're friend ...Jim
