A Little Angel... Poem by aigis nalian

I was driving down the highway,
My mind was a bit distraught,
When I met a little child,
My attention she caught...


The little child smiled at me naughtily,
she held out her hand a little haughtily,
Beckoned me to her side
And she asked me for a ride...


I took her along, amused by her bravery,
Amazed by her willingness to trust a stranger so,
She saw it in my eyes, though how i do not know,
She just smiled, and sat right next to me...


And as we drove through, she showed me the blue sky,
She showed me the green grass, a beautiful butterfly...
She showed me how my troubles were too little to care,
And that I was in need of a moment to spare...


And when she got down, she smiled, waved goodbye,
I shed a little tear, I don't even know why
For that little child had shown me, what life truly meant,
For she was my angel, that for me God had sent...
