My friends call me an earth angel
Young at heart they always tell me.
Love my angels who watch over me
Insight into seeing what lies ahead.
Friends I have on AP, so blessed do I feel
Each and everyone of them so special to me.
Australian gal born and bred I am and true blue
Now I'm a wife, mother, grandmother and grand
Got four children, seven granchildren, one grand
Each one is special, as all Nan's seem to know.
Love life, live it to the fullest, no time to waste.
I believe my life is enriched by love, unconditionally.
Come by and visit me, I'll make you welcome
Any way, this is my life, this is Angelica.

Time for me to actually return a comment, since I have to for the contest anyway
More insight on our angel is certainly the truth. Such a big family..And such a cutie in the photo!! When you finally go get Chris in Aussie, come to Canada next and bring him with, would ya? 
Then I'll have two angels here and more beautiful poetry to read!

You are an earth angel...all who know you are blessed by your warmth and love. I know I am. You turn tears into smiles and smiles into laughs. I have read this before, but am so happy to read it again. It reminds me of how blessed I am to know you.

A glimpse into the life of our Angel This is beautifully done hun, I love this style of poem. My mother did one for each of us when we were born with our names down the side and it sort of stuck with me, I've done a few of these myself. You did a great job with this, it's not easy to begin each line with "certain" letters like this. Bravo!!!!!!
