Guardian Angel

You brought armfuls of dream Want to parse the stream They say you are made of cream Bright and leading my tongue scream What else was so sweet This is your cross street Always stand on its own feet No matter how much the clock beat Uncultured and out of control cars Foolish drive from hours at the bars Received license from the planet Mars No wonder purple stars Without you in my life my friend Visiting hours are over ~ the end __ /_/\/\ \_\ / /_/ \ \_\/\ \ \_\/ 28.10.2015 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved 3rd place in the contest

A unique take, I must say, Anne-Lise! I can feel the contrast between the initial light lines and the sad ending. That cross is excellent! Congratulations on your fine win. Hugs // paul

The message about bad driving comes through clearly, Sunshine. There are often times I wonder how (and where) some people got their licenses. Maybe these licenses did come from Mars! With many outstanding entries, judging was difficult (again). Congratulations on your win! And thank you for supporting the contest. Best wishes, Carolyn

Hello Dear Anne-Lise, A very powerful and sad sonnet with its words of earthly disregard culminating in a tragic auto accident (if I've interpreted this correctly). Regardless, what a tragic and terrible way to go. A poignant and moving write. A Giant "SEVEN" too!! Cheers and Best, Gary

Interesting take on departure. Sounds like there was a car accident. If that is the case, it's a sad way to travel away.
