"Tim was so learned that he could say horse in five different languages but so ignorant that he brought a cow to ride on."- Benjamin Franklin


I walk through the crowded hallways of the school
everyone flashes by in a hurry
and my books are knocked out of my hands

What a kind stranger with a pleasant soul
to come and help me, to take their time, and help me
I have been blessed I have met an angel

I ride my bike down a sidewalk by a busy road
other people are walking, running, and riding
I don't see the bump that throws me off my bike

What a kind stranger with a pleasant soul
to come and see if I'm alright, to stop in their tracks for me
I have been blessed, I have met an angel

I run home from the bus it's icy and cold
everyone is shivering and walking quickly
I step on an ice patch and find myself on the ground

what a kind stranger with a pleasant soul
to come and lend me a hand, to be cold a second longer
I have been blessed and I have met an angel

That is not what the poem is saying, It's saying people all over are kind and they will become angels and go to heaven when they die.

I wish I had an angel to follow me around.
