They come from every walk of life <br />especially when we're filled with strife. <br />A smile, a hug, a listening ear- <br />then all at once we hold them dear. <br /> <br />They make us realize life's worthwhile. <br />Our journey ahead seems less than a mile- <br />With gossamer wings that shimmer unknown <br />worth more, than the rarest gemstone. <br /> <br />I've learned it's not always big things in life <br />that touches our heart and causes delight- <br />It's the little things, which turn tears to a smile <br />when angels among us, stay awhile.<br /><br />Sandi Alford<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/angels-amoung-us/
