Angels do live among us.

There are too many negative things that are going on in this world right now unprecedented moments in our history especially here in The United States of America that we would be calling atrocities sixty-eight years ago both here and Nazi Germany world War II. Just think about it and all the rights we have handed over to our government the same ones that ignored this virus six months ago. Now scrambling almost in disarray as more and more of us die every day. With this tragedy and all of the others there is a light that still shines down albeit a vera tiny small one. As a lot of us are wondering where God is right now, I do not know but can see his Angels down here every day I look around.

Angels among us

I believe that Angels do live among us 
and that they may be anyone we might
meet, from the man down at the grocery
store helping you with your groceries, 
to the soldier fighting a war for our
freedom who will never admit his defeat.
To the little girl who was just diagnosed
with cancer, and the type that does not
even have a cure, to the little boy with
autism, who shows his unconditional 
love for sure. to the lady next door with
the bruises, who says she only tripped
and fell down to the ground, to the little
girl locked away in a bedroom somewhere, 
who was told never to make a sound.
You see Angels really do live among us 
and they just maybe anyone that we 
might meet, for God has chosen those 
people, whose souls can never be beaten.
From the homeless woman who has
mental health issues that nobody wants
in the cities, to the police officer
protecting children while walking his beat. 
To the mother of three little children, who 
is just trying to make it through, and to 
the man who brings food to their table, 
out of work, with no money, so that they 
could eat.
Angels do live among us and they 
just might be anyone that we meet
for God does not look at who you were
but instead, he chooses for what they will be
maybe the teacher spending long hours
teaching our children for very little pay to 
the doctor who just saved your 
grandmother who had COVID 19
along with all those nurses working double 
shifts twenty-two hours a day. 
To firefighters risking their lives 
every day putting out fires and saving
lives and property with very little sleep.
to all of those out on the front lines and 
grocery stores filling the shelves so
we have food water and toilet paper every 
single day
Angel's do live among us and they just
might me anyone that we may meet 
so look
around you, then take a good look down
deep inside of yourself, for those Angels 
just maybe you, or they could even be me.
