Touched By An Angel Poem by Heather Kemper

Did you know that you glow
when you smile big and bright?
You capture everyone you know
anyone in sight.
You have such brilliant life
and can infect all who see.
You've been my inspiration
an angel bright and free.
When I was down
unsure afraid,
You held my hand
beside me stayed.
Always there
when I needed a friend.
I knew I could trust you
I could be me and not pretend.
Now you face
tough times alone.
away from family
from your friends and home.
Do not think
I'm not there in my heart.
I would trade you places
I'd play for you this part.
I'd do this for you
in the blink of an eye.
Hero, friend
for you my angel I cry.
Sent from above
with special touches and care
you blessed me and my life.
If ever you need
I'll always be there.
Thank you little sis
for being my friend.
A rock when I needed
on whom I can always depend.
I've been touched by an angel
everyday and it's true,
Touched by an angel
that angel is you.
