(Down Syndrome Birth)
As beautiful
angels wings were
flying
over the streets of gold,
the baby angels could only
watch
since they weren't very old.
Then
one day God stopped to
talk
to a little one without wings,
He
said, "your day has come.......
just listen to the
angels sing".
Confused
yet excited the little
one
said to the Lord,
"But
I'm different from the others
God
and not a miracle to behold".
"Oh,
but yes you are," He said
with a hug and smile on his face.
"You're
the greatest gift I can give
and
a loving home you will grace".
You
mean, tho I'm different and
will
never be beautiful or smart
Someone
will want me and give
me
a place in their heart?"
"Gee
God.....that person must be
special
to be glad to have me,
Cause
most folks would frown
and
upset they would be."
God
said, "your little heart was
filled
with more love than most.
Cause
I knew this family would
love
you and hold you real close.
So
go my little angel and take
the
greatest gift I can bestow.
You're
that "special" angel few
people
have the honor to know."
