Poet Light Verse

Halo of Grace

The face of an Angel
A fantasy of golden haze
Lovely, in shrouds of fragility
Hovers in radiant ethereal allure
Bound with imperfections, still pure
Halo of grace throughout eternity
Serves desperate souls faithfully
As she reveals what you can never see

Karen, this is a poem that I really like! - When we talk about angels ..... I believe there are angels around us, yes I do. - Thanks for the nice visit on my last poem: "Just A Kiss" - oxox / / Anne-Lise :)

Anne Lise, thank you for the sincere comments. I felt the angel there as I wrote this. I suppose I must believe they are real. Hugs

There are angels all around us. The Bible tells us that we never know when we are entertaining angels unaware. So we must be careful! Thanks for writing.

April 20, 2013 at 5:21 PM

Marvin, I agree whole heartedly. There is certainly a presence that can be felt in certain times. I love that feeling

Dear Karen, I'm lost for Words. It has to be a Word they use in Heaven that we do not know until we go to Heaven. I don't know the Heavenly word but this is definitely Divine induced. GODLY AWESOME. A favourite. With LOVE ALWAYS and FOREVER YOUR Servant, Liege...Harry
