laundry day for angels

perhaps the angels also have menial tasks...


Poem Artwork

          Looking up into the sky this afternoon…I see a significant number of clouds shift direction…in their fullness…as if the angels had added astronomical amounts of fabric softener to these cumulus fabrics of softness in the heavens.
         
With a touch of gray color in the embodiment of their singularity…these clouds seem to make a statement…that it could well be a laundry day for angels.
          Robes flowing in the heavens…clean…unsurpassed purity…traces of water still held in the seams…emotion…as air in its time…promises rejuvenation of beauty to its original state.
          It is a day…such as this…when thoughts of laundry…bespeak new meaning…create genuine vision…in accordance with our angels' friendship.

A StormSpinner type of write, John: Wish I'd written it. Am I jealous? No: just very blessed to have read these lovely images in verse. Well done.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

My new favorite of yours: keeper!

A fine analogy, John. And, on the subject of angels, I honestly do not know where I'd be today without them having "saved" me time and again. Thank you. Love and best wishes to you,

From now on I will see the clouds like the clotheslines where the angels hang there to the saints togas to dry.
Well done.

this is damn unusual! and I love anything with weather and cloud references. This is one of the most original ways of making a poetic comparison I've ever read -- and funny with the references to "laundry" I plain like it.
