The Little Angel A little angel floated down With creamy wings and halo crown Descending through the morning dew And settled there within my view She looked at me with cherub face And hovering steady in one place She played upon a tiny harp Such wondrous music in the dark The glow of halo lit her face A smile so sweet and full of grace As I upon my pillow lay Let little angel fingers play She plucked a song that ever rings So tenderly upon the strings This magic music raptured me Into a sense of ecstacy These tunes so dear filled with delight Like crystal prisms in the night Filled the room with rainbow hymns Of music chords I felt within Never had one played like this With resonating chords of bliss What caused an angel to appear To play sweet music in my ear Then in a wink she sped away Just upon the break of day I knew that this was not a dream This angel sweet with wings of cream Perhaps the angel came to me And played a hymn exquisitely So that my heart would be thereof Prepared to follow her above But ‘twas not so, for on that day ‘Twas hymns of joy the cherub played For very early on that morn My baby grandson had been born |

hehe....this reminds me a lot of my angel, a_little_girl...she's just as beautiful as this poem, as well as the music. You did an excellent job on this, Elizabeth!  Thanks for the incredible read. Little Spyro T. Dragon |

Liz; nothing so wonderful as becoming a grandmother, and your poem heralds that so perfectly! love, ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |

Elizabeth, This poem is absolutely beautiful, the blessing of children alone is amazing, yet your poem brings the event to life with such a wonderful grace. : ) |
