Analysis of Angels Found



Here on earth are angels found
absent both harp and wing
Identified by tender touch
Helping hands that aid so much
Melodies inspired to sing

Here on earth are angels found
absent both harp and wing
Merely human they appear
Yielding comfort where there's fear
Kindly warmth around you ring

Here on earth are angels found
absent both harp and wing
Some have whiskers, tails and paws
Cats and dogs with nettle claws
Placing in hearts lift and zing

Here on earth are angels found
absent both harp and wing
All creatures both great and small
The divine seen in them all
Everyday large love they bring
