Broken Wing

My Archangel name is Angelo though I'm not fallen my favorite color is Indigo rumors spread and fall in I was born with a fragmented clavicle to stop me from flying so I stay on the earth to be affable full speed I'm vying I can't believe what they have said that I'm the Angel of Death conception I'm not conscious of what text they've read I appeared in people's dreams brethren My name means messenger which is what I am forgive my lot begetter I received the Blood of the Lamb

Angie, I love the power and beauty of your poem. You are a poetry angel, my friend. I've always loved the name Angela and it nice to know that we share a love for a favorite color too, indigo. Warmest wishes, dear poetess.. ~Susan

Nice to know more about you, Angela. So, I had to search.AQUARIUS GUARDIAN: URIEL Uriel, lord of good luck and grace, rules Aquarius natives. This angel understands well the Aquarius’ detached and fanciful ways, helping them to put order in their lives. Oh, dear, and I need order in my life.
