Angels and Lyres

Eyes closed My heart ecstatic My soul exalted I let the angelic tremors hit me! A smile shapes itself on my lips How comforting Lying on the cool and refreshing grass With only the night air Between me and the stars I let myself rejoice At the melodies played by angels! The melodies played up there in the skies The melodies played on those golden lyres The melodies unheard by the whole of the human lot But easily accessed Simply by opening the entry points in our selves! Why, angels playing on lyres Are like innocence swirling and twirling Into a typhoon Yes, a typhoon ravaging negativity on its rampage A typhoon providing peace and relief A typhoon, capable to have us all Feel the tolerance and the love of angels As they play for us, Seeing us, being like children Children, fussy and selfish Children, yet, so in need of love and attention Children, having to be constantly monitored As any mishap can be fatal! Pray, angels playing on lyres Remind me that life is yet a mystery And bid me to feel grateful To have been graced with an awakening Pray, life, elsewhere is our sole aim While, life, on Earth, is meant to be a battle A battle with ourselves So that we may proclaim, loud and clear That we are among those who Hear, And relish Of those melodies That angels play to us On their lyres Up, in their celestial abode Up, where life keeps its origin safe Up, where life keeps its meaning safe There, where we shall be, Someday Playing, on lyres, as well! 28 March 2017
