Face to Face with An Angel

Written for my Dad, while he recovers from open-heart-bi-pass surgery, His mother's name was Pearl, she died when he was 11 years old, ........

Reflect of passing, new and clean,


a pond where only hearts can sing,


tis tranquil love, where seasons past,


when storms threatened, she came in fast,


gh



Infinity power, she was there first,


her love abiding, since your birth,


she knows the dash of inbetween,


a place of joy, to think and dream,


gh



In happiness she has rejoiced,


in sorrow, I could hear her voice,


with holy love, now face to face,


Loving Pearl, stood there in grace,


gh



In vigil near, thru dusk and dawn,


unconditional love remains her song,


this angel here I surely know,


Heaven only sends the finest glow,


gh



No direction was she ever given,


to shine hope among her living,


So remember as you look up high,


and see the shaded sapphire sky,


that angels never disappear,


she waits in love to greet us there!


gh

your daddy is in my prayers; wonderful tribute to your daddy and mom! my daddy had open heart surgery earlier this year; he is doing GREAT! he had a lot of people praying for him, and he isn't a very religious person; so God IS looking out for him! Maybe one day my daddy and my family will come to know Christ as Karla and I do; that would be WONDERFUL! (((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Texas, Karen Lynn. :D

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.

Next Arrivals by Robin Ouzman Hislop

Robin Ouzman Hislop's poetry is certainly in dialogue with some of the key architects of the 'poetics of indeterminacy' – both the Modernist strands represented by the likes of Beckett and Stein, and the postmodernist strands represented, initially,
