'Hey, look up there, up in the sky, an angel's floating by With pretty puffy wings 'n' curly puffy hair, oh my! I hope someday God gives us pretty wings so we can fly And bounce around on puffy clouds all day up in the sky! (That would be wonderful, Nicole!) You should have seen my friend today, oh boy, did he look cool! He wore a leather jacket, boots and shades today to school I think he really likes me 'cause he sat close to my stool Then said, "when it gets hot again, come to my swimming pool!" (Watch over, Lord, my sweet Nicole!) My tummy's hungry, needs a snack, can we stop by the store? Can I get chocolate pretzels, chips, and maybe one thing more? I'll do my homework really good, right down here on the floor; See all these stars? My teacher said good work is what they're for! (My shining star, you are, Nicole!) She said to study good tonight, tomorrow is our test; My homework's done; can I watch 'toons'? They are the funniest; I'm not a baby, don't take naps, but maybe I'll just rest And wait for Mommy to get here,oh,Mom Mom, you're the best..... ....zzzzzzzzzzz' (I love you too! Sweet dreams, Nicole!) < !signature--> Denise And slight is the sting of his trouble Whose winnings are less than his worth; For he who is honest is noble, Whatever his fortunes or birth.~~~Alice Cary, ~Nobility~ [This message has been edited by dsnyder (edited 03-10-2000).] |

Denise, I can just see you and the little one having this conversation. Great poem--I enjoyed reading it. "Unto thine own self be true, and it must follow as the night, the day; thou cans't not be false to any man."---Shakespeare |

This is so great, Denise! I love the way you seem to capture words and put them into a piece like this so well... Are you sure you're not the angel that you yourself mentioned?  Little Spyro T. Dragon |
