Angel on your shoulder?

Question

Where did that term came from? Is it really true that every time a friend thinks of you, an angel sits on your shoulder?

Answer 1

It is a good thought.  And it should be true.  But can I request that the angel be a Cherubim and not a Seraph, and if ....  if Cherubim is the right spelling.   In Pinoy speak, it's "Querubin", and it means a child angel, and sometimes they have only one head and a lot of wings, and that's it.   Shouldn't be heavy on the shoulders.   A seraph, I think is a full grown Titan of an angel.  My shoulder might be dislocated if he sits on it.

Shall we sing, Maej?  "Got an angel on my shoulder.  Got a penny in my pocket.  And I found a four leaf clover.  And I put it in my wallet.  Wish that all the stars above me.  And I caught the nearest rainbow..".  And I don't know just what follows.  I have lost that song, too.
