I felt her feathers brush across my face and chest like strands of long soft hair.

Had a dream that the most beautiful girl in the world floated down through the ceiling, crawled slowly into bed, slid up next to me where I could feel her warm nude flesh against mine, laid her leg across my stomach and gently put her wet tongue in my ear, then whispered, "I came for you."

This got me thinking about all the angels I have in my life right now.

When I thought things were at their worst and looked to be like there would be no way for me to go on and maybe it all would possibly end, an angel would appear. Some of the angels I knew, some and possibly the most generous ones were complete strangers. Some could simply look at me and tell things were not going right for me. Yesterday an angel disguised as a waitress walked over and hugged me and simply said, "I know." Then she gave me a plate of food that I didn't order and told me, "There's no charge on this sweetheart, we all have to stick together."

One angel pretending to be a young 13 year old girl that followed me around a book store telling me all sorts of useful information about how magical and wonderful life is to distract me from my sadness.

One angel costumed as a night clerk at a hotel offering me free food and a room at no cost.

One angel clothed as a witty, dark and mysterious woman invests money in my ghost documentary.

One angel impersonates the bestest friend a lost and troubled man can have and gives him a place to sleep, a shower to use and an oasis of laughs and memories to ease the journey through the desert of bad luck and poor choices.

One angel who I've never met reads my stories and sends $300 to my PayPal account through the donate button on http://www.jerrylentz.com without the slightest hesitation to do so.

One angel time and time again comes to me as the most beautiful girl in the world. Once she was simply an image in an old photograph that appeared to me as I was about to do the most horrible of things to myself, then she rescues me with care packages of food, gas money, hugs, kisses, love, a place to sleep and truly the best escape of all. I know that the Kingdom of Heaven lies within me and at night when I am still and quiet I see her arranging flowers in the garden there and she is waiting for me to come inside.
