back in sixty-nine awed by Victoria Station my first trip abroad she came up to me old, frail and helpless looking struggling with her case woman in distress hesitant, asking for help disorientated her mind set at rest with a reassuring smile her quandary solved while boarding her train with tears in her eyes she said you are an angel ----------------------------- Contest: Angels Sponsor: Marvin Celestial Placed 2nd © 5th April, 2016

I do believe in angels Paul and have had much unexpected help along my way from them. When you go out of your way to help someone, you are an angel for them. I loved your touching poem. Congratulations on your win. :)

I too believe in angels, Connie, under whatever guise they come. Thank you for liking and for the congrats. ~ I have just been on "Junction Forum" and seen Ravi's translation into Indian; of course, I can't make out the writing, but it's still an honour for you! He also translated my "India" poem, but it's not uploaded yet. ~ Regards // paul
