Hey people. I want to share with you a poem that was written by my grandmother many years ago and it's about my invalid aunt. My aunt, Carol never walked or talked a day in her life and was only suppose to live to the age of 8. She passed 2 and 1/2 years ago at the ago of 62. She was our families angel and we miss her so very much. R.I.P Carol Jean 3/13/2009
THIS POEM DOES NOT BELONG TO ME....
I had to add the video TEMPORARY HOME by Carrie Underwood. Because rather you believe it or not, we are not promised tomorrow. I know where I want to be when that time comes and this song fits with this poem.
This was afterall... Carol's and my grandma's temporary home.

An Angel’s Smile
I have an angel in my home
She’s all the world to me
The sweetness of her lovely smile
Is beauty you seldom see
She cannot walk or run and play
Or even speak my name
But the love I have in my heart for her
No words can ever explain
I stand beside my angel’s bed
And wonder why this test
Then her lovely smile just seems to say
Be patient: God knows best
When burdens are so heavy
And all of life seems wrong
The sweetness of her lovely smile
Gives me courage to go on
Sometimes when pain and anguish
Wrecks her little frame
Her lovely smile will fade away
But soon returns again
Soon I know God will call her
To a better home
Where no pain can ever hurt her
There she’ll smile for God alone
I know I’ll miss my angel
When her face no more I can see
But the sweetness of her lovely smile
Will be locked within my memory
