Notes About The Poem
 
Written- 22nd May 2024
Awarded Poem of the day - 24th May 2024

 

 

Heart Gentle Eye Mindful

Always keep space within your heart, for life's unexpected brand new starts. Quote - Poet’s own In my dream I saw an angel Hovering o’er my bed Light was gleaming from her halo Here are the words she said. “I found out your heart is troubled That you’re wishing for deathly I am our dear Lord’s messenger Sent down to bestow rest.” She laid her hands upon my chest Then recited prayer I felt the pain flow from my heart My mind cleared of despair. The angel flew out the window Blowing a goodbye kiss Then I slumbered on peacefully In ethereal bliss. I felt heart gentle when I woke I’m eye mindful at last Life has become spectacular Now it’s truly a blast.

Congratulations on your POTD, Beryl. I read that Angels who hover around someone implies that they are so interested in that person that all they want to do is be in their presence. That, it seems, is how the angels feel about certain people. The passage makes this clear by saying that they “hover lovingly.” The goal is reached, "I slumbered peacefully" Peaceful & touching. Enjoy your day!

Hi Anaya, I believe angels know when you need them, for whatever reason, soothing our torment away. Thank you, Beryl
