Would man accept an Angel should she be sent to them?

Question

Wings alight in meadows

Angel in a female form

The long grass whispers in the wind

all the world bends

Fire beneath my breast

beats to a drumming tone

fear to face the world

for within it being me

is blasphemy!

Gentle as the Sea dust

my hair hangs down, unbound

Tear like fragile, spider thread

weaves its’ way to the Earth

How I wish now

to be without these wings of grace

For even though I would be fallen

I could be accepted

not exiled…

as an angel always is when sent to man

-This is not me speaking but the angel… but part of me rest within the fires beating within her… I would love to hear your thoughts…

Blessed Be in the Freeing of an Earth-Bound Angel, Siren

Answer 1

I've had my angel for 23 years and counting.  Great poetic reminder.

Answer 2

This is absolutely exquisite, rich in beautiful imagery and as graced as the angel of whom you write.  One of your very best.  I can see her, with her "wings alight in meadows", a lovely vision, even in her exiled sorrow.  Thank you.

Answer 3

Don't kid yourself, this poem IS about you. And that's why it is so beautiful and elegant. There is a problem though. It seems to alternate between being told by and being told about the subject. Therein lies the confusion.

Answer 4

I have always felt as if I have been blessed with an angel around me.  I know I have an angel that lives with me each and every day.  Wonderful poem.

Peace & Love :)

Answer 5

I love the use of similes in this poem. It really helps me picture the scene and the angel. You use such powerful words to convey your message in this poems. I think everyone can relate to the feeling of having different parts of you wanting to speak, and all clamoring to be expressed. I found it easy to lose myself in this poem, no matter how short it was. You did not have to get too wordy to make it great.

Are you going to make this a series? That would be great if you did. I think this would be very easy to continue, and would be completely original.
