Friends Are Like Angels

 Our friends are like angels,
who brighten our days.
In all kinds of wonderful,
Magical ways.

Their thoughtfulness comes
as a gift from above,
and we feel we're surrounded
by warm, caring love.

Like upside-down rainbows,
their smiles bring the sun.
And they fill ho-hum moments,
with laughter and fun.

Friends are like angels
without any wings,
blessing our lives
with the most precious things.

"God Needed A Friend" 

by Marigrace Iodice

Did God need another angel?

Or someone He knew that would care?

Someone who always thought of others

And when needed was always there.

Did God need another angel?

Or someone to be more helpful in Heaven above?

Even though you were treasured here on Earth

I guess He noticed your kindness & your love.

Did God need another angel?

Or someone He knew was worthwhile?

Someone who shared in His spiritual inspirations

And someone with an awesome smile!

I guess God watched you from Heaven

And choose someone He knew was special

As I've cried to God in anger 

"Why did You need another angel?"

The answer hit me & it's quite simple

For now I'm no longer saddened,

Because, God DID need another angel 

. . .but he also needed a friend!
