Angel In a Jar

Angel In A Jar I caught an Angel from the morning sun, in a jar her wings undone A blissful beauty a spinning spun, I will keep her with rejoice and run I look in the jovial jar; I see an ethereal enchantment a heavenly star I’m mesmerized by far, she smiles at me a benignant butterfly bizarre Eyes immersed in blue light, cyan skies warmed with congenial white I hold heaven within my sight, for I caught an Angel in her festive flight The jar begins to shake; I feel beautiful vibes that she begins to make A jubilee of Angels in her wake, of miraculous music a quavering quake I decide to let her go, I see visions of love as her wings attach and glow And now I weep and sough, for I held an Angel in her wounded woe Let free your Angel to the sky, even if it means a cathedral crimson cry Do we ask the question why, Angels come and go in the blink of an eye?
