Angels are bright still, though the brightest fell- William Shakespeare

 
Angels Beneath The Breeze

 
Those graced with wings are many
And varied as the score
Yet by a prismed difference
They're joined by right to soar
 
From tiniest of insects
To dragons old of myth
We mortals dream with envy
To rise in flight there with
 
Wings outstretched of sparrows
The locusts in the skies
Flying fish of oceans
From earth and sea they fly
 
Mortal aviation,
The craft of man to air
A miracle with limit
To trust a wing with prayer
 
Perhaps some fallen angels
Might still possess their gift
Where by sweet temptations
Would offer souls a lift
 
 
Banished from the heavens
For the sins of pride
Beware mortals, shun envy
Decline their offered rides
 
Our choices marked with wisdom
Our choices greased by ease
Are we the fallen angels
To never ride the breeze
 
Pax

A deep message within these lines. Beautifully written. The last stanza leaves me with a feeling of regret and longing for what could be if the right choices are made. Love and Hugs,
Sheila

A PAX, beautifully written. I like the rhythm and envy
your skill with rhyme. If I had the wings of an angel,
so goes the old song, where would I fly to, and would
I find a good hotel when I got there? -gene.

By the end of this century, we'll all fly with ease. Until then, we dream of angels..

Are we the fallen angels
To never ride the breeze?

It sure seems that way these days, Queenie.

Beautiful poem capturing the hold angels have over humankind's imagination. Hope I get to meet my guardian angel some day! :-)

Splendid poem A Pax! methinks we are not the fallen angels,
since I've ridden the thermals already;-)

Hugs,
