Crying Angels

The angels stood at attention Waiting for the call To free God's only begotten Son Who would die for one and all Imagine how they watched the Lord Who knew them all by name As He offered both His hands to them Who would cause Him so much pain All of Heaven went silent As they nailed Him to the tree I wonder how the angels felt As they watched His Agony Jesus could have called them Ten thousand angels strong But He knew He had to finish What He'd waited for so long And when He said it's finished He gave up the Ghost and died It must have looked like rain that day As ten thousand angels cried

Bar none, the best inspirational poem I have ever read. I would recommend you post this on Rapture Ready. I am not a member of the site..my wife is. She asked permission to be able to post on that site. You have wrtten a truly beautiful and uniquely creative work that I have no doubt was aided by a higher hand. Congratulations, you are a rare talent. Keep writing my friend. I am listing you and your poem as my favorites. Mac
