wings of wounded angels

mending quills...



 

Feeling secure this afternoon…
in the safest room…
self…
I choose to recognize
the importance of beauty
in the soul.

That we all recognize
this communion of reverence…
in the illusion
of calendar days…
our physical existence here
on this planet…
is but a beginning…
preface…
for communicating through senses
not yet cultivated.

Sharing the light of angels…
guides…
mentors…
we acquire wisdom to overcome weakness…
become empowered…
surpass…
rise above the clouds of confusion…
forward
to clouds of enlightenment…
healing…
repairing the wings
of
wounded angels.

I love the sentiments expressed within this poem. It reminds me of one of William Wordsworth's poems...Can't remember the title though.

I agree, John. Furthermore, I do not know where I'd be if it were not for the help of angels so many times in my life. Thank you. Love and peace to you,

There is a simpleness to finding the hidden .... it is within the silence of the soul, where treasures are exposed and passed through the mind so one can find themselves...

and their Angels..


nice...

These words hit me square in my heart.
"we acquire wisdom to overcome weakness…
become empowered…
surpass…"
Wisdom is different than knowledge, I think. Wisdom incorporates knowledge and discernment. Great poem, John.

A preface to a journey that does not end in the physical death, but, continues where the spirit is led through our beliefs....

To be the one to keep the angels flying is an awesome career. You're just the person to do this too. Your faith is awesome John.
Love,

"...raise above the clouds of cofusion..." and yet, have the spirit to go on "...repairing the wings of wounded angels..."
I never thought that angels could be wounded, but yes they are, as the author points out, we ignore that fact by being too preocupied with our own "...physical existence..."
Good, very good!
