Angel

"I am your special angel,
On orders from above,
To see that as a child of God,
You receive some special love.

God sent me down to find you,
I knew exactly where to look ...
For your name is written down,
In God's big address book.

He said I'd recognize you,
From your tiny turned-up nose;
You'd also have two shell-like ears,
Complete with two ear lobes.

He gave me then a choice,
Of your left ear or your right;
Said I could stay in either one,
So I'd be with you day and night.

So, if your ear begins to tickle,
From the flutter of my wings,
Remember I'm an angel,
And angels do those things.

Now, if you get to feeling sad,
Or maybe kind of scared,
Just tug upon your earlobe,
I promise to be there.

I'll come straight to your rescue,
Because that's my job to do,
God thinks you're very special,
That's why He sent me down to you!"

Why are you so special to me ?

"Because I know I can depend on you.
Because you know when to laugh at me and when to take me seriously.
Because you know what to repeat and what to keep to yourself.
Because you sense the feelings behind the words.
Because you always see something positive in me.
Because you are never fake but are always honest with me.
Because you are a giver not only of your time but of yourself.
Because you are a rare combination of strength and sensitivity.
Because you know me better than most people.
Because you are not afraid to step out into the unknown.
And most of all because I have the privilege of calling you friend."
