breathe the breath that angels share
on balmy summer nights
as they dance through silver fronds
while chasing pure delights
and feel their touch as they enlace
their magic through your mind
to softly falling water drops
that open your eyes blind
to rainbows in the glowing dark
of streetlights that you guide
through a world of wonder filled
with joy that grows inside
they touch the ones whose hearts allow
the mysteries in their soul
and fill with glee the seeking hearts
that through the moonlight stroll
Outstanding, shadow, such emotion
ReplyDelete"they touch the ones whose hearts allow"
ReplyDeleteThat is one powerful truth Shadow. Thank you for sharing dear one! You are truly special!
breathe..feel..as they touch. Beautifully written. This jump started my day.
ReplyDeleteThat was filled with oxygen, it was so refreshing, it wakes me up, I'll check the sunrise now!

I love that, only a certain few are touched by the fairy world. I'm happy you are! I think they pick people who will write about them in such so nicely. Lovely lovely.

ReplyDeletei couldn't stop reading this, so poetic. i like the way you take the time to be a child (angel in this case), feeling, loving, breathing, letting loose and enjoying...
ReplyDeletewarm smiles,
Thank you for sharing this beautiful and powerful poem with me, today. I needed it.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful!

Angels do creep in everywhere - if you let them! :)
ReplyDeleteI remember such and angel .. on such a night .. and the shared breath.
ReplyDeleteThank you, for that. A memory that has been too long untouched has now been revivified, re-remembered and refreshed.
And it's refreshing.
I never turn down an opportunity to dance with angels. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great way to ring in the new year.
ReplyDeleteYou know every day when I come here, it is like I have come to a better place. Love your emotions, words. You are very special.
ReplyDeleteSo delicious, those balmy summer nights... Lovely to remember them on this chilly winter day. May the angels surround you, Shadow...
ReplyDeletei was just thinking -
ReplyDeletewhen i stand on the ground here with my head held high and arms stretched toward the sky i am upside down to those who are doing the same in the southern hemisphere... and vice versa - if we could see each other as we stand Shadow, we'd see the bottoms of each other's feet :)
Let's go barefoot on opposite sides of the world together!
With regard to your post,
ReplyDeletethis filling with glee is such a magical thing -
it is a heart touching thing you've done shadow...
glowing rainbows - worlds of wonder

ReplyDeletexoxoxo
your your blog
I did as you asked and the pure delight flowed through me, chilling me on this cold winter night.
ReplyDeleteBut as I did, I stiffened and could not feel fingers or even open my eyes, the magic had wildly taken my sight.
It was pure and had a neon blue glow that filled all my senses causing my heart to shout its joy and solved most of the mysteries that came out that night.
Nice imagery in this poem.
ReplyDeleteThe opening reminds me of a song by Emitt Rhodes called "Lullaby":
ReplyDeleteTears that angels cry/ they darken all the sky/ when the one you love says goodbye/ tears that angels cry
Sing a lullaby/ sing it soft and only sigh/ when the one you love says goodbye/ sing a lullaby.
Happy New Year 2010!!
ReplyDeleteYour words shadow your words!
ReplyDeletethey're all in one
they're medicine that cures
they're your love that heals
and in them you list ingredients
in them your clearly define
you freely give the instructions
and the reasons your loving way
works
lovely words work when light cast
you're shadow!
Lovely!
ReplyDeleteYou are so talented!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
