If it were not for guardian angels I wonder where I'd be...


Poem Artwork

Light Of Angels
 
It took a child
To show me angel lights
In the sparkle of crystal orbs
On dew-drenched grass
In rays of filtered sunshine
Through summer leaves
And barren branches of winter trees
In sunlight’s glitter
On freshly fallen snow
In sparkling shimmer
Of moonbeams
On river, lake or ocean
In ceaseless twinkling
Of countless stars
It took a child
To remind me
What as a child
I knew
That guardian angels
Are ever by our side

Regis,
Innocence has a way of opening eyes. Children see so much more. This is a vivid poem with a magical feel. It has that Tinker Bell feel; it makes me want to believe. Love and Hugs,

A very powerful peice Regis, one of your best in my opinion. It is too bad that most people aren't able to gain back that view of the world they had as a child, it would certainly eliminate a lot of the problems we have these days. A beautiful offering.

Once again, you do it for us. So well written with deep feelings and the beauty of children and their innocence. Surely, they must be our Guardian Angels at times. Love from Meredith

I really, really like this one. I immediately felt centered and synchronized with the Life that expresses through all that is, was, and will ever be. I think I can say I felt "empty". Thank you, john

Oh Regis, so very beautiful and so true too. As children we can see all the beauty, wonder and enchantment in all we see. As adults we become blinded by woes and the cares of living. There is much to be said for the insight of a child, they can teach us alot if we'll but listen! Very well done Regis!

Hugs

Ecstatically clapping my hands in childlike delight, here, Regis! :)) This is sooooo spot on and beautifully, perfectly stated to great effect, and with the desired impact: stunningly gentle and yet strong at the same time. This is brilliant with truth and pure as the pristine elements of which it is composed. We can all be children like this, and, indeed, it is through the eyes of a child that truth and light is quickest perceived. I'm left wondering what the actual earth-years age of this "child" was/is?! Would I had eyes to see what s/he sees. This is both comforting and encouraging. Bless you and thank you... be well!

I love the style in which you wrote this. One long sentence that seems to be a metaphor for eternity. Beautiful write. Angels are there. And sometimes God uses people as "angels." It happened to my husband and me. Someone pulled over to help us with car trouble. He didn't say anything. Just fixed the car quickly. We asked if we could pay him. He said, "no, just help someone sometime." We watched his truck turn around and vanish into thin air.

Your contrasts of seasons and reasons strikes a disharmonious luxury of loved 'strife', Regis, promoting such love to us who are 'in-between' as to ache with each line, in such a way, we, the reader, feel the authors happiness in such a way as to revel, for a second, in the 'perfect moment'...

Angels were desexed philosophically in the writings of the early theologians who said that unlike the souls of the virtuous reborn, angels were even unable to kiss.

Christian iconographers borrowed an existing inspirational figure as the model for their angel, the pagan goddess, Nike, or Victory. As a result, angels became feminized, sexually ambiguous figures.

It always comes back to a world of ideas and images created by the child's own discoveries. Light of Angels is a reliable source of guidance, as you are to me Regis.
