God Needed An Angel Poem by Murphy Payne

Born an angel fourteen years ago
She stayed that way throughout her life
Always helping those around her
Leaving her mother so very proud

Separated by work and school only
Mother and daughter were very close
Struck down in life so young
By a speeding bullet hit and run

You see, God needed an Angel that day
So he called upon the purest best
To join his team in heaven land
And change the lives of those behind

Every action is done with reason
We may never comprehend Why
But today God needed an angel
And angels have to die
