there are some beings

they are higher spirits walking among us

they are angels and you don’t know it

they have no wings

but they glow

their essence shines brightly 

they make people laugh and smile

they put people at ease

we are sometimes angels

whether we know it or not

tonight i thank all the angels

who have touched my life

made me feel special 

and held the lamp up so that i could see

so i could find my way
