“angel wings” – the silent flutter (poem & photo)
featured in the ebook –
“Poems for Lovers Loving & Being Loved“

i rarely thought, if i truly have a guardian angel, it would be alone…
experience told me my angels would be at least a pair, possibly a group, some coming, some going –
probably, one staying, sorta “assigned” to me, but i’d asure them, a silent smile across my heart, i wouldn’t hold them to it 😉 if they had more pressing prayers to answer….

i think the closest i felt that same feeling, with people, were the times i remember my parents, bent over me, as i lay with fever in my bed –
or even tinier, kneeling in church, while i tried to fathom the routing system for any prayers i could create that would “pass” the grade and help someone, usually in purgatory – i especially, as a child, kinda felt for those folks 😉
though i can’t truthfully say i believe with certainty, that there are angels, much less any given carte blanche coverage over my own whims and care, i’m sure not about to give up my “belief” in them, no way 😉

Angel Wings
Angel wings flutter
like swans on a mirror
cutting the clouds of worry
wounding my heart.
Angel wings can beat
a gale of ocean softened
breath across the prairies
of my mind. The scented
air loosens the soil
seeding my thoughts
sending me colors
coated with life.
Angel wings will furl
like cotton ‘round me when I
sleep–my spirit parents
bent calmly on protecting me.
