Angels in the sky
Way up high
Angels in the sky
I wonder why

Whose in heaven?
Who all goes?
I don't even know!

Is my dog that died there?
Is my grandmother there?
Is my grandpaul there?
My uncle or gold fish?
Am I just being childish?

Angels everywhere
Angels soaring through the ksy
Way up high
I wonder why

The author's comments:
What inspired me to write this poem was the recent knowledge that my grandmother has alzheimer's, and has less than a year to live. God bless! I love you gran! ?

i like the idea in this passage, but the writing is a little confusing, you seem to switch from poetic to just talking, and it doesnt flow as well as it should. But the idea of "who are the angels and why are they up there?" is really cool! keep writingt what you feel.
