Why do we see angels with wings?
So high above us, where Heaven's bell rings?
Why do we see angels above?
Can they not live among us and spread their love?
Angels, as it is said, are here to protect,
To save us from pain, suffering and neglect.
My angels are here, on earth, across the sea,
Fighting for my country, for you and for me
Some will go to that cloud above our heads,
Some will be in our dreams, when we lay down to bed.
Some will return home, to family and friends,
But the battle they fought really never ends.
I have a camouflage angel, I call his name brother,
Not because we shared a house, a dad or a mother.
But truly because, he stands tall in the face of fear,
Truly because, in my heart he is near.
I will be safe tonight, and hope my angels will too,
But I will still bow my head to pray for a few...
'God, please watch over my camouflage angels as they fall asleep tonight..
And through their sorrows, please help them fight...
For without angels, we are lost and dazed,
Please help my angels come home, and in their deepest souls..
Changed.'
