Have you ever been in a real fix?
Once traveling in China with three kids and way too many suitcases
We could not get our things to the train on time
Just impossible
All of a sudden a man comes up and says
“Here let me help you!”
And he did
And we got on our train
And then we wondered
Where did he come from?
Or
I love it when I get to be someone’s angel
This morning a dad and his young son
Out looking for breakfast
No one opens for breakfast around here until nine
I gave them some extra yogurt and bananas
The boy gave me a big smile
Sometimes we get real angels
When we are in dire straights
And there is no one else close enough to pull in for the job
Or listening to that little nudge inside
I know I saw one once
He even was playing a flute to prove it

Beautiful pic on the top! This is very interesting, I enjoyed reading it.
Thank you! The pic is from a rainy day in Stanley Park in Vancouver, BC.
Aw. I’ll bet you are the angel more than the recipient, Julie. What a sweet poem.
