A little girl lay awake one night,
alone in her hospital bed.
She closed her eyes and prayed to God,
and this is what she said.....
"Don't let Daddy be too sad.
Don't let mommy cry.
Help Michelle to not be lonely,
and not to be so shy.
Give my dolls to the little girls
Who need someone to hug
And give my bear to the boy at school
Who always sits alone on the rug.
Take the flowers beside my bed
And give them to someone who needs
A cheering up, a brighter day
Or has a garden all filled with weeds"
As a single tear rolled down her cheek,
and with the very last breath she drew
She said, "Oh, and God.....
I want my wings to be blue."
For every time I've stumbled,
There is a time I've shone.
For everything I've messed up,
There is a time I've grown.
I know my Lord in heaven
Is watching over me~
At times He sends His angels,
At times he lets me be.
For life without some trials
would be quite plain indeed.
And I wouldn't learn the lessons
Which He knows that I will need
So, Bravely, I endeavor
To live my life with grace
Aware of all those angels
Who are close by "Just in case"
