With an angel on each shoulder
I rise to start my day
I brush and prepare my smile
Then I'm on my merry way
All of my clothes had been stolen
For awhile my identity too
But I make no excuses
There's so much that I must do
I'm so glad that I've been chosen
For a very special purpose
I put on my armor of positives
So the negatives can't surface
So as I Bridge the Gaps
So that others don't have to roam
I thank my Father in Heaven
That New Life has become my home
***********
This poem is dedicated to my co-workers
and clients of my new job at New Life
Community. I help homeless people find and
obtain affordable housing at my first job
with Bridging the Gap and now I help
women in New Life Community Transitional
house to find jobs.
