Angel

He Wonders If he's here Or has he slipped To the other side Past the reach of her hand His mind grasps for her presence Hearing the softness of her voice Wishing himself back into her arms Eyes open he sees her angelic face

For a short piece, this is wonderful on several different levels, Richard. I am going to read it to a friend tomorrow whose wife had a little heart crisis two weeks ago. How their marriage relationship is based on them being one of each other's angels. Just beautiful.

wow, I can see the comments you are getting on this one. I think for a novice, you are QUITE good. Keep it up. I like this form so much, I once did a chapbook of all etheree in it! As for the ABC poem. OH my gosh, that is so hard to do. You have got to try it, richard. I know you can come up with something amazing.

Wonderful ending Richard. Beautiful write. Not easy to do in this Etheree form. It flowed perfectly. The ending was climatic to the reader. How I at least wanted it to end. A winner here. Few sentences say so much, tasteful romantic theme, just right. A well deserved 7+
