Angel In the Valley

An Angel in the valley I once met
At the base of the Falls where I did set

Over the rocks the water poured 
Accenting each one's shape and form 

 Her soft voice blending with the waters flow
Played a song in my ears not heard before

Our conversation short but sweet
While sunlight shimmered upon the leaves

The cool spray of the water
 The warmth of her eyes
 Melted together like earth and sky

As we parted ways I knew I'd been blessed
By this angel in the valley that I had met 
 At the base of the Falls where I did set

Beautifully crafted Edward. is was a feel good poem that takes the reader directly to that place where you met this angel. Nicely done.

Thank you Chris for your kind words I'm glad you like it. The valley I wrote about is a real place and the poem itself is about a brief encounter with a woman I met there.
