Playful Angels

Oops my halo`s slipped again

I mustn`t take it off to play

Maybe I shouldn`t remove it at all

Angel`s image is to stay and pray

I have this desire to skip and jump

Hate being the silent helper too

Want to sing and make daisy chains

Why can`t I dance and play with you

The archangels calmly tell me off

They say I should be more demure

Respectful of the old traditions

But making children smile is best for sure

I`m sorry if I get it all wrong

Maybe one day I`ll live and learn

But until then we`ll  have some fun

Please give me a chance, don`t be too stern!!
