He and She

Mr. Male, sat high in a tree.
He can almost reach the sky.
He looked up and longed to be free.
So he stretched his long arms.
Just to graze the clouds.
All around gathered crowd's
Just to watch Mr. Male
Fail.

So every morning with the birds
He would stretch and the clouds would stir.
He would reach as high as he could.
The wind would blow but he with stood.
Again gathered crowds.
watch him reach clouds
to see Mr.Male
Fail.

One day Mr. Male Yelled.
For he could not reach!
So with a great hur-umph Mr. Male Fell. 
As time passed the crowds left.
Then there stood one, inch by inch she crept.
with a soft voice she sang
" Mr. Male just give it time
and I will hold your hand in mine
with love we will win 
and not play pretend"

So she and Mr. Male took there time
together they grew
with each step they would climb.
finally together they reached the clouds
again there were crowds.
with a great cheer
the sky was cleared

and there they stood 
she and Mr. Male
as the sun and moon
with no such thing as fail.

The asngel shall reach out and touch, for he is now saved. I'm not religious Kristenna, but I sure love poems about angels, especially Dark ones....:)
