Touched By An Angel

Touched by an Angel

Have you heard the prayers of an angel,
as they rest their wings from flight?
Have you felt their love shine forth,
as they watch over you day and night?
Have you ever stopped and wondered, 
if you could help them in any way?
Maybe a simple thank you,
could somehow make their day.
What if we are randomly tested, 
given chances to show good will?
It might be a homeless stranger, 
or a child lost up on a hill.
That person you are about to encounter, 
may have lost a loved one they once held dear.
Maybe a smile and a wave, 
could help them face their fear.
Whatever the case may be, 
let your soul shine with an open mind.
The very next person you help, 
could be that angel you’ve been hoping to find.
