I BELIEVE IN ANGELS

i don't remember who or where i heard

the saying

that it is in our challenges and trials

that we become acquainted with ANGELS

it is true

i have an ANGEL

that knocks at my door in the evenings

then disappears mystically into the night

but leaves a signature gift behind

clearly, our ANGEL is familiar with the song

"the twelve days of christmas"

so clever and well thought out

each generous and i mean generous gift

ties into the words of the carol

which also matches an essential need

and a great deal of fun

on the first day of christmas

a partridge in a pear tree 

and some gifts to buy some groceries

on the second day of christmas

2 turtle doves

became 16 bars of dove soap

on the third day of christmas

three french hens gave to me

a variety of french foods

(french fries, french toast, french vanilla ice cream)

the hens gave us lots of chicken noodle soup

and a gift card for harmons groceries

on the fourth day of christmas

my true love gave to me

4 calling birds, cats and a DOG

with a gift card to PETCO

and a darling necklace

i was just telling my parents

about this secret act of kindnes

when the knock came

oh the excitment

on the fifth day of christmas

five golden rings

five guys and fries

golden arches

gift card

and 

one from jamba juice

so to our unknown angel

you've filled my heart with love and hope

i have three words

wow

wow

wow

so clever

and love has filled my heart

for the unknown angel

thank you wherever you are
