The Wings of an Angel

And, being so small that it seemed to take him just twice as long as anyone else to get to nightly prayers, the Littlest Angel always arrived late, and always knocked everyone’s wings askew 

as he darted into his place

 -Charles Tazewell  The Littlest Angel

This time of the year, this book always comes to my mind

I always seem to be rushing about knocking someone's wing askew!

I am thankful for all the "little angels" that have come my way this year

Helping me pull my weight

clearing the path

and brightening my day

and where have I found this little angel?

In the eyes of a friend

in the laugh of a child

in the touch of the one I love

                                       Today, I hope you find
                                          your little angel too

"Do not neglect hospitality, for through it some have unknowingly entertained angels."
