WHAT DO ANGELS LOOK LIKE?

Like the little old lady who returned your wallet yesterday.
Like the taxi driver who told you that your eyes light up the world, when you smile.
Like the small child who showed youth wonder in simple things.
Like the poor man who offered to share his lunch with you.
Like the rich man who showed you it really is all possible, if only you believe.
Like the stranger who just happened to come along,
When you had lost your way.
Like the friend who touched your heart when you didn't think you had one left to touch.
Angels come in all sizes and shapes and both genders and all ages and skin types.
Some with freckles some with dimples, some with wrinkles, some without.
They come disguised as friends, enemies, teachers, students, lovers and fools.
They don't take life too seriously and t hey travel light and often do not leave a forwarding address,
They ask for nothing in return they wear sneakers with gossamer wings,
They get a deal on dry cleaning but are often they are hard to find when your eyes are closed,
But they are everywhere you look when you choose to see…may we always open our eyes, hearts and mind so we never mess those everyday angels in all our lives.
