The Heavenly Muse

I wonder if angels write poems
Can they be our silent muse
Do they softly whisper the words we write
And tell us what words to use

Do they whisper their stories of Heaven
As we write with all our might
Describing the things that we haven't seen
While bringing us into the light

Do they warn us of all the evil things 
That we on earth must face
Do we hear their voice inside our hearts
That travels through time and space

I wonder if they hold our hand
As they tell us what to say
And when our poems are finished
Do the suddenly fly away

I wonder if angels write poems
And whisper the words we use
For this world would be a better place
If we had a Heavenly muse

I guess it could be, my friend but if I were an angel I wouldn't get blamed for helping me write some of the "duds" that I've written! Anyway, a very thought provoking piece. Nice going. Ralph
