Notes About The Poem

Advent of the Fallen

Written: August 24, 2023 ______________________________________________________________ In the realm where fallen souls reside, Where darkness thrives and hope subsides, There, among the shadows deep, Dwarf, hopeful lights from the forest floor seep. Amidst the trees that loom so tall and straight, Split by such kindness, of light they partake, And from nothing, one soul takes form. She is life-standing, from the shadow she was born. Her hair was dark, cascading as a waterfall. Green eyes, such as the forest belt, thrall A smile as genus as the moon grace, She walks at a gentle pace. In this realm where fallen souls reside, She is the beacon and the guide. With each step she brings to light, Banished darkness, dispelling the night. Her touch, a balm to wounded hearts, Her words, akin to music, heal infarcts. She sees the broken, the lost, the weary, And with love, she brings them back, so cheery. In this realm, fallen souls reside. She is the hope they cannot hide. With her tiny lights of love and care, She brings warmth to despair. Spangling the forest floor, she walks, Shining a path where hope once balks Through the tangled thicket, she weaves Bringing solace to those who grieve Her presence, a beacon in the night, Guiding those who've lost their sight, With each step, she illuminates To redemption, the journey acuminates In this realm where fallen souls reside, She is the light they need to survive. In the darkest corners, she finds the lost, Whispering words of hope, no matter the cost,

A caring, cheerful person is always a blessing ! Even in the nether world where fallen angels reside, such a soul brings hope and light. I am reminded of Florence Nightingale ! Beautiful as ever, dear Lasaad!

Probably foolishly, but I liken her to a nurse as well as an Angel. Spiritually she is obviously an Angel, however the same words and images could be likened to the marvelous work that nurses do on a worldly plain. Either way your poem is soft and tender, caring, hopeful, healing and spreads happiness. A beautiful poem my friend. Best wishes.

This to me is quite the masterful new piece. I read it three times trying to take it all in! About an angel of Light it seems. With Hope and ever present blessing. A fav--a jewel my friend. God bless.

A beautiful poem Lasaad, one to be read slowly perhaps with the Patrick Stewart voice I’m imagining, you really do see the light in most everything you write, a top poem from a top guy, I will be back to read again, just in case I missed something, so much in here I’m sure I did, cheers David
