Notes About The Poem

Angel Love

Angel Love

There is a rose named angel face,
In lavender she blooms with grace.
When I admire her sweet splendor
I recall your love so tender

Keeping watchful eyes over me,
And answering with love my plea 
For your help, when I am in need,
Contrasting miracles indeed!

Though unseen, I feel your presence
In aura of Divine essence.
My soul yearns to meet you in kind
So grateful you can read my mind;

Lift my burdens, leave shoulders bare,
I could not live without your care.
What a blessing you are to me!
You have my love eternally.

Good Morning Connie. I turned to this entry because of your lovely title. Your words are as soft and lovely as the title to match. The image is exquisite. Your rhyme was never forced. And the line "I could not live without your care" says it all and so describes your thoughts. Thank you for sharing your talent. May this day find you well.

The photo of this rose is almost as breathtaking as your poetic tribute to it, Connie. Congratulations on your win! There is a gemstone called "angelite" that is similar in color to this rose. Thank you for our conversation. Love, Carolyn

Congrats my friend. A truly poetic and lovely piece of poetry. I loved the simile with the lavender rose especially. It has always been a colour that's stood out as a higher essence to me. :)

Hi Connie, you touch the soul with this truly wonderful write. What grace and peace your words bring as they sing so gently into the heart. The angels touch you every day. They lift your heart so you can write your excellent words that we all read. I love the content of this exceptional piece. This angelic gem goes into my faves. Have a wonderful Thursday.

I am a big angel believer, and so this poem calls to all the parts of my heart that are in touch with my own angels. So nicely built, and pure, Connie.
