Angelic

 
Inspiration, Title 4, Angelic and quotation. "And so it is, that both the Devil and the angelic Spirit present us with objects of desire to awaken our power of choice. There is an invisible strength within us; when it recognizes two opposing objects of desire, it grows stronger." Quote by _ Rumi
I am always dreamer, transcending realms of time and space; and within mind an angel will shimmer, a benevolent being with no face. I hear a voice talking, an angelic being is truth speaking; sent to protect me from evil seeking. Evil has one goal to turn me from good, Lucifer ... whispers his falsehood; but, I have personhood. And with courage ~ strength his words grow dimmer, temptations of greed and hate with no base; he is ever trying ~ creeping, angels guide me to good.

If we have such an angel residing within, our attitudes to life will change. Angels are there to guide us and illumine our paths. You have done full justice to Rumi's quote. Love this poem of mixed rhyming. All the Best dear Constance.

What a deep and profound write this is Dear Constance. I absolutely love the way this flows and how you’ve delivered this: gives an introspective and very sincere touch to your poetic voice. I especially love “ temptations of greed and hate with no base; he is ever trying ~ creeping,” excellent! Soulful! Pleasure reading . Best wishes for the contest. Sending you light always
