Notes About The Poem

Written on January 19, 2025

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Angels Unawares

It’s taken a lifetime to write the song
Legends of joy upon the mountain peaks
Evoking rhapsodies from festive weeks
Written by one whose always been headstrong

It’s taken such strength to write each soft verse
As the silence reaches past my heart’s chase
Shadows of my soul slumber with disgrace
Where the story of my heart seems a curse

It’s taken strength to sing despite my tears
Reaching past the lyrics with words sincere
Now that I’m older, everything seems clear
Walking past dread with angels unawares

Karen Jones January 19, 2025 at 6:51 PM Regina I love the last stanza especially because it paints courage despite tears and that is hopeful. Love this.

Miranda Hawley January 19, 2025 at 3:56 PM I like the fact that you admit this taking a lifetime to write and that you have been headstrong. Age and hindsight do make this very clear as to what was. I for myself fully believe that I have actually met my guardian angel. God has his angels literally everywhere and they do help us past dread.
