Four Angels

four angels 
to stand in 
my home
one was bigger
with a gold band
in her hair with 
gold glitter on 
her dress
the others 
three the hard way
all four beautifully
brown-skinned with
braids and light golden
wings 
they were as true
as four directions
four elements of
nature, four corners,
and four legs on 
a table
