~ ANGEL IN YOUR POCKET ~

I am a tiny angel
I'm smaller than your thumb
I live in people's pockets
That's where I have my fun.

I don't suppose you've seen me
I'm too tiny to detect
Though I'm with you all the time
I doubt we've ever met.

Before I was an Angel
I was a fairy in a flower
God, Himself, hand-picked me
And gave me Angel power.

Now God has many Angels
That He trains in Angel pools
We become His eyes, and ears, and hands
We become His special tools.

And because God is so busy
With way too much to do
He said that my assignment
Is to keep close watch on you.

When He tucked me in your pocket
He blessed you with Angel care
Then told me to never leave you
And I vowed always to be there.

~ GOD'S SPEED, MY ANGEL ~

Among the many blessings,
That God has sent my way.
Was a tiny pocket Angel,
That fluttered in one day.

God placed her in a pocket,
She seemed quite happy there.
She did her job of guarding,
And providing Angel care.

I loved that tiny Angel,
But soon word reached my ears.
She had been seen in Switzerland,
And China and Algiers.

I wondered if she'd flown away?
So I took another look.
And there she was, where she belonged,
Right in her pocket nook.

How could it be that she was seen?
In a strange and foreign land.
Yet still be in her pocket home?
I did not understand.

My guess is God made more than one,
He might have made a pair.
When a pocket picker picked up one,
He left the other there.

Blessings on you, pocket picker,
Whoever you may be.
You badly need an Angel,
Maybe two or three!

And God's Speed to you, my Angel,
No matter where you are.
I'm glad God made you shareable,
With all souls near and far!
