Pocket Angel

I am a tiny Angel
I'm smaller than your thumb.
I live in people's pockets
That's where I have my fun.

I don't suppose you've seen me
I'm too tiny to detect;
Though I'm with you all the time
I doubt we've ever met.

Before I was an Angel . . . 
I was a fairy in a flower:
God, Himself, hand-picked me,
And gave me Angel power

Now God has many Angels
Whom He trains in Angel Pools:
We become his eyes and ears and hands.
We become his special tools.

And because God is so busy,
With way too much to do;
He said that my assignment
Is to keep close watch on you.

When He tucked me in your pocket
He blessed you with Angel care;
Then told me to never leave you,
And I vowed always to be there.
