Calling All Angels

Is love a physical thing or a measure of soul

A bodily need with a mind of its own

"Cause this thing we call love hasn’t turned out too well

So why so many hearts are breaking… can somebody tell… 


Is there something we’re missing that’s not on the shelf

Or when trying to perfection we keep creating new hells

Why we see the mistakes…and continue who knows

If history cannot teach us, then pray God you'll have to show


What is a dream when a dream’s just a dream

Maybe good intentions that will never come to be...

But when the people elect governments that corrupt and war

There must be something missing of that I’m really sure…


So let me step aside and bid you, have a good day

Giving thanks for the time you took to read what I say

We've got to get together to make the world a better place

Calling all Angels near and far to help us find love ways.... love ways

Onward to a more pure love, closer to the heart. This is on that path. Very good poem for the soul.

When you go right back to Paleolithic, the basis of survival was lust and there were wars, there would have been love in some capacity. There has always been a lower balance of love and there has always been war and it has far surpassed a united peace. I can't but help to think, we have been set on a course as some experiment by a higher power, as yet, not totally known to us all, to prove we have it in us to reach a point where Love is achieved by all and in such a way it infects us all like a contagion that will save our existence and our souls. My thoughts on your beautiful thoughts. x

First, I Love Angels. Second, I Love Your Picture And Poem. I wrote an angel book for ages 10 to 110. Because of my book, I have had people tell me stories about seeing angels. I would love to see one.

If some would wake up, you can actually touch one beside you... they're close...as close as your reflection in the mirror...All the best Paula...

I hear your call. I think humans often confuse love and lust. I am for a combination of both.

And what a combination that maybe...for that we need a regulator of some kind to achieve a good balance...Thanks for passing by Richard... All the best...

Love_relationships takes work as does nations staying at peace ..The answer is in our desire to work at nothing. Discard get something new. Only we don't change so the new won't last either. Sara

Man keeps making the error that only he can repair the world. It seems to accelerate every time man forgets he is not the ruler of this world, the universe, seas or land masses. We cannot even get along with human beings. It's never meant to be perfect on earth. That's the illusion we were sold. Electors are not saints. Just flawed humans. Panagiota

Perhaps today, as with marriage, there is a need to expand the narrow definition of 'love' -- as that which is found between a man and a woman in the bonds of holy matrimony. Quite restrictive, it seems...

Thought provoking poem that steers the mind and the heart. Since we are the product of love , love is present in both worlds dear, Arturo. We keep writing in parallel thoughts. Have a look at my today's post, posted some hours ago!
