Angels and Their Friends

Angels And Their Friends

All along the forest winds desire
Angels fly from side to side beguiled
At attention to the young running child
Allowed to frolic free between the trees awhile

Born to breathe below branch and leaf 

Chronicled are beginnings and child’s ends 
Charmed, fleet-footed with playful friends 
Charging past the forest to the open glen

Boundless energy, into the arms of parents with relief

Hi Dr. Mehta. Thanks for commenting. Looks like we both got 4th. place. Does that mean we each share two and a half points for prosperity? Congratulations on your win. Take care. Earl
