"Mummy! Mummy!" She called out loud.
Her little voice drowned by the noise of the crowd,
In the hustle and bustle of people hurring about,
It was easy to ignore a little girl's shouts.

Clutching her teddy bear in her arms,
She searched the sea of faces in panic and alarm,
Her mother was here just a moment ago,
Where she was now, the poor thing did not know.

Slowly but surely she started to cry,
Tears fell like rain from her big blue eyes,
The harder she sobbed, the more terrified she became,
When she suddenly heard a voice calling her name.

"Emily!" There stood a man dressed in white,
His robe radiated with a dazzling light,
On his back a huge pair of bird-like wings,
Upon seeing him she immediately stopped crying.

"Tell me, are you lost?" he asked gently,
She nodded her sweet head vigorously,
"Come," he said lifting her onto his shoulders,
"We'll find your mummy, together."

Up he flew into the sunny blue sky,
She gasped with delight at this man who could fly!
She looked down below at the crowds of people,
She could see all of them without any trouble.

"Look theres mummy, the lady in red!"
The flying man smiled and nodded his head,
He put her down carefully onto the ground,
Near the lady who was frantically looking around.

"Mummy!" cried Emily, and ran to her mother,
Who saw her coming and hurriedly embraced her,
"Oh Emily, please forgive me! I thought I'd lost you,"
Choking back her tears, Emily replied,"Me too!"

She stopped for a moment and turned around,
But the kind, winged man was no where to be found,
In her heart, Emily knew as she went on her way,
That her guardian angel had come to her rescue that day.

As you're reading this please bear in mind,
That I will be beside you anywhere anytime,
As your guardian angel and your friend,
To pull you through till the very end.
