A New Pair Of Wings (Fun Poem 52)
Some people say I am an Angel,
well not quite yet.
I am still trying to earn my wings.
I once had a pair
unfortunately, they fell off.
When they made them,
they made them three sizes too big.
They have called me in for a new fitting,
hoping they will be ready
for New Years day.

My Own Angel, Whom God Sent For Me
My very own Angel
One so specially made for me
Made so perfectly by the Almighty
When i look into his eyes
i know there is a God who loves me
Made an angel just for me
His hair is dark and fine
wings so bright white
strong enough to fend off evil
God must've known, He had to
that i would fall in love
with my own angel
His wings which i can see
for miles away in the darkest cave
is always right beside me
whenever evil comes this way
im never the slightest afriad
Because i know he's always here
ready to fight for me
for my soul to reach heaven
so we can be together
not as human and angel
--But-
as ANGEL and ANGEL!

Broken Angel
So small, yet still so proud
At night before he dreams he looks into the clouds
A high flyer's what I want to be
Seems they won't let me, says I'm too small
I don't feel small at all
Break my dreams, that's what they'll do
Well I'm going to run away and learn to fly like you
I'm going to go so high and swoop so low
You can't bring me down, going to be so proud
Little angel you got to learn to fly
Get up and earn your wings tonight
Little angel just look in my eyes
Get up and earn your wings tonight
Push and shove then climb aboard
This is the shuttle train to the top of the world
When you look around what do you see
These are all high flyers
But none of these high flyers look like me
What is that supposed to mean
What am I supposed to be
I pull my way up through this crowd
To find your body crushed on the ground
It's so obvious, why couldn't you see
That you can't go high flying without a pair of high-flyer wings
Little one's broken lying on the ground
Trying to get up 'till his last breath out
Wings are strewn everywhere, there's blood all around
'Cause even angel's die, but that light just fades
It's so sad, but he'd be so proud
Broken angel you've got to learn to fly
Get up and earn your wings tonight
Broken angel just look in my eyes
Get up and earn you wings tonight
Get up and earn your wings, earn your wings tonight.

Fallen Darkness
You are the fallen dark angel,
angel of death as u may be called,
i called ur name the other day,
to say i am ready to prove my love,
love that is ready to be taken from u,
taken u have done and smashed it to pieces,
how could u,
i thought we had something,
something no one else could ever have,
then i finally realized that u,
the dark angel,
also called angel of death,
is the devil himself,
i have made a comitment,
with the devil himself.

One Angel
One angel, its wings spread out
colliding with the speed of sound,
One angel, that shone brighter
than the moon cratered by eternal night,
One angel, with beauty that made all the,
flowers shed there pedals out of jealously,
One angel, it's hands soft and warming
like the embrace of the suns nova ray's,
One angel, it's voice echo's through your mind
hitting every sense of safety into bloom,
One angel, with eyes that ate out
the vision of anything else but them in your sight,
One angel, it's touch like that of a dimming
candle penetrating your skin with warmth and delight,
One angel, that breathes everything
into you so you can stay alive,
One angel, that holds onto your soul
in the treasure box called her own,
One angel, is all you need
to have a eternal paradise in your soul,
One angel, you only see once in life,
One angel, that's yours to own,
One angel, made for the souls needed to be sown

I Fell In Love Wth An Angel
I fell in love with an angel,
an angel in disguise.
I fell in love with an angel.
I could tell when I looked in his eyes.
Angels are perfect in all God's ways
and no man is supposed to be.
But when God made you my dearest,
He threw away the key.
One like you was enough for Him
and of course enough for me.
The first time that we kissed my dear
it was so heavenly.
And why was I one to capture the prize,
this angel in diguise?
Maybe creation had plans for us
to cherish our love and be wise.
So as I look back and visualize
just how we did meet,
I realize dear that your angel wings
swept me off of my feet.

Walking Along The Road
Walking along the road one day, I saw a butterfly pass my way,
It's lovely pretty wings stretched out, I was hoping it'd stay;
It made me think of What the Lord had made years ago,
The colors of creation on his wings, was such a show.
Walking along the beach on summer's night,
As the sun was setting, the colors a delight;
From reds, to orange, blues then a purple to black,
It reminded me of creation, these colors came back.
As I slowly walked through the zoo one morn,
And saw the animals, a new elephant was born;
I admired all the sizes and shape of each one,
It reminded me of creation, when the work was done.
As I was walking past the cemetery and saw a cross,
I stopped to look at it, and remembered the loss,
The loss for a mother, and the disciples too,
And thank my Good Lord, for His great love so true.

On Angel Wings
On angel wings you do fly
On angel wings into the sky
On angel wings i do cry
Because those angel wings took you away
On angel wings the heralds sing
Is there no such lovely thing?
On angel wings you fly away.
I will see these angel wings again someday
When i am old and my time has come
On angel wings I will fly
Until I'm holding you once again
Smiling on angel wings.

Mechanical Angel
The Mechanical Angel
Is made of tin
Put together with screws
And mixed with sin.
The Mechanical Angel's
Paint never fades.
Underneath her perfect fingers
Hide hidden blades.
The Mechanical Angel
Must constantly grease her joints.
Her nails are sharp
And her teeth filed to points.
The Mechanical Angel's
Head is dusty.
She is uncared for,
She's getting rusty.
The Mechanical Angel
Cannot feel.
She cannot hear, cannot understand,
Her wings are made of steel.
The Mechanical Angel
Is made of tin.
She shuts the world out
And locks herself in.

The Friendship of an Angel
God once made an angel then clipped the angel’s wings
And now at every twilight, a lonely angel sings
Her song of loss and heartache, of losing her best friend
The one she could rely on, on the one she could depend
But don’t cry my weeping angel, come take a look and see
For the angel who once lost her wings, is now taking care of me.

Emily
Words & music: michael w. smith and wayne kirkpatrick
Caught, in an endless time
Waiting for a sign
To show you where to go
Lost, in a silent stare
Looking anywhere
For answers you dont know
Chorus:
On the wire
Balancing your dreams
Hoping ends will meet their means
You feel alone
Uninspired
Well does it help you to
Know that I believe in you
Youre an angel waiting for wings...emily
You, going through this stage
Its a restless age
Young and insecure
Sill, there are doubts to fade
Moments to be made
And one of them is yours
Chorus
On the wire
Balancing your dreams
Hoping ends will meet their means
But you feel alone
Uninspired
Oh does it help you to
Know that I believe in you
Youre an angel waiting for wings
Oh, youre an angel waiting for wings...emily

Stupid Angel
This angel story is very new,
It was never told for you to know,
An angel like others, have charm and powers,
Sent from skies to guard, to guide,
But she herself needed guidness,
Her first mission but it's Okay,
She will learn by time, as they say,
And then comes the devil's role,
Tries to mislead the Angel off the course,
With all his powers and all his force,
The Angel's confusion made everything to her 'cool',
The Devil succeeded after-all,
The angelic silk the angel wore was torn,
The angel fell in void of sins,
And a devil from the angel was born,
It's the fault of misleading..
Stupid angel she was, beginner in a world of monsters,
She was there beyond the skies,
And then she was sent to the earth,
When she fell in her own abyss,
The devil's lies misleaded her,
and in the no-where, she dies;
Lies can make you what you want,
That's the oldest trick of all,
Not because he called her my beloved,
Means the love was her enough,
What a stupid word to a lil angel can be said,
How can a devil feel love?

Angels
Everyone pictures angels
with angelic faces, golden hair,
a pair of wings and a head
surrounded by an aura of gold.
However, are angels really like that?
Angels are just like you and me.
They walk among us
and you would never recognise one,
if they were right before your eyes.
They will never tell you
that they are an angel.
The only time you would know
there was an angel there,
is when their miracle
has been performed,
and like a fleeting ghost,
they fade away and are gone.

Wilde Angel....Doc Wilde
Wilde Angel the sun that brightens my every day
Wilde Angel the brightest star that lights up my darkest night
Wilde Angel my divine super hero
Wilde Angel chases away the scary monsters from under my bed
Wilde Angel big soft cuddly teady bear
Wilde Angel with outstreched wings ready to break my every fall
Wilde Angel with invisible wings
Wings that lift my spirits
Make them soar high above the heavens
Wilde Angel you graced my life and made it worth living
You heard my thoughts my inner voice
The silent pain
The deafening silence
Wilde Angel your voice sings a lullaby to my heart
Sweeter than any chocolate kiss
Cradles my pain and rocks my world
Wilde Angel your heart brought forth and did lay before me a gift
A gift of friendship unconditional
Lily white and pure
Wilde Angel you wipe away the tears even before they fall
Turning them into pearls of wisdom
Wilde Angel......you are the answer to my every prayer
You are the love, the blind faith, the healing friend my strenght and my joy
You are Doc Wilde......Leila's very own Wilde Angel
Don't ever tuck away those wings Doc.......Love LeilaXXXX
Having Wings
Having wings
I have wings
Wings so white
Wings that let me fly like a kite
Having wings is such a spontaneous
Why to say to say hey, I made it that way
Made it to graduation and made it to a promotion.
made it all over this nation
But now having wings makes me want to cry
Cry so hard ill probably drown in my tears
Ill cry because I know we didn’t say are last good- bye and
are final hug and kiss good- night
I dedicate this to my grandfather

December
December is the cruelest month
But this time for once my cheeks are warm
After long years in the monkey-house
I am ready for the storm
Let them throw all their cannonballs
Let all their strongmen come
Im ready to go anywhere
Through venom, sick and scum!
December isnt always cold
But this year shes mine and I know why
Somewhere a flower has to grow
For every flower that dies
Im stricken with fever
But my heart is strong as steel
Im ready to go anywhere!
I can believe, I can feel!
December is a trusted friend
I always recognise her face
Its a plague of fool blown aside
Forever by her soft and silent grace
She is reckless as a mayday
Gentle as a stone
And ready to go anywhere
To carry me back home!
December fell deep in the bleak
Mid-winter time when jesus christ
Howled a baby saviours howl
A primal truth as pure as ice
And though we crucified him on a cross
And dragged his name from payer to curse
He was able to go anywhere
He was almost one of us!

You're my Angel
You're an Angel that nobody can see,
Still an Angel is what you are to me
An angel from heaven is what you are
In my sky you're definitely a heavenly star
You're an angel with beauty & grace
You're so kind & sweet,
you have an angel’s face
You have a pair of angel’s wings
Happiness and joy are just some things
That an angel can give
In my heart & mind is where you're living
You have hair as soft as the white clouds
A guardian angel is what I have gotten.
Your eyes are like sapphires that shine bright.
When everything is dark, you give me light.
You're an angel that gives me a reason to live,
You're an angel that teaches me to give.
You're an angel that teaches me the right things to say.
You're my angel & Ill always care.
You're my angel & you know Ill always be there.

An acrostic poem for micheal.
Manyatimes i wonder how this life will be
If we were made to stay in this world forever
Counting the years without growing old
Having all what we want and ask for
Ever ready to do things according to his will
Accepting the fact that he made us
Lo, we owe him our submission
Surely that wont happen because, if we
Have all what we want, our
Eagerness to have more will come, we never be
Ready to do what is right before God.
People grow old, and as they do they learn,
Except there has being a new invention in science
Right or wrong, if we were made to stay here forever,
Definitely, it will not be meaningful because of the non existence of death.

Fallen Angel
I have fallen from sky,
Fallen to the ground,
I am the angel of sadness,
Angel of lost hopes,
Angel of lost dreams,
I am the fallen angel,
Fear me not,
I am here for reason,
That reason is to have a second chance in life,
That life I was given for a reason,
They took my wings,
They took me apart made me human,
I was the fallen angel,
But that fallen angel had one chance in life that she was given,
This angel won’t make the same mistakes she made before,
This angel will go down the right path that has been chosen for her,
This fallen angel know what she has to do to be forgiven.
