+*+*+

There's an angel on my shoulder,
She's been there twenty years.
She's joined me in my laughter,
She's wiped away my tears.

She loves me and protects me,
Shines her Light upon my Path,
And those who dared to hurt me,
Have felt her righteous wrath.

This angel is my Dearest Friend,
Her name means, "Of the Light",
Ilona, you're a blessing,
And yes!--You're always right!

+*+*+

What a wonderful friend to have and I'm sure she appreciates your friendship as well. May you both remain with the angels and be protected by the ring of truth, light, and prosperity.

If she smiles as wide at you
as I am, then I know you've hit
her heart with this one.

I know JUST how you feel!

What a blessing such a friendship must be. You made me smile when I read about her righteous anger.

Friendships are so precious. There are few things on earth that are worth as much as a friend. And that is why I chose my favorite quote from Robert Louis Stevenson as my signature...

“We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson

Linda, this is a remarkable and glowing poem. I have read it several times and am drawn to your angel!

I've had this angel graphic waiting in the wings to be used in a special poem. Yours is that poem. I gift her to you and may she rest on your other shoulder bringing you light, love and peace.

Hugs and Luvs, Marti

Yes, she does feel the same way about me. She is a highly evolved soul who is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside. Thank you for the blessings! I will pass them on to her.

Loving hugs,

This is a beautiful declaration of love. Enjoy her and love her in return but I honestly think I did not have to tell you to do that.

As I was posting this poem, I had thought of you Sharon and the painful loss of your dear friend--and yes, I do value our friendship and am thankful for it every day of my life--literally!

Thank you for such a heartfelt reply.

And I am sure she feels exactly the same of
a certain angel we know...

Very kind thoughts....but I would expect that
of you...
