Notes About The Poem
Written - 15th April 2024

The Wonder of Angels

Ever wondered if angels fall in love With a divine beau in heaven above Do angels long for an angelic kiss Or for to exist in romantic bliss. Do angels dance upon God's holy stage To divine music that's seraphic rage Rotating, gyrating, twisting, twirling As was done when just a girly earthling. Would angels play games, such as hide and seek Or are they simply too mild and too meek To indulge in those long ago playtimes Games that they played when they were in their prime. Do angels wear dresses spun from gold thread As did princesses in those tales once read Does it matter to them how they are seen Or do they dress for the heavenly scene. Is it true angels watch o'er us in sleep Singing lullabies to God's precious sheep Keeping one safe in dreamland overnight Until moonbeam and starlight fade from sight. I wonder if angels weep many tears When they're witnessing war, worries and fears When all they desire is peace upon earth That all folk and creatures have equal worth.

Thank you Jennifer, who knows what angels do after falling in love, perhaps it’s a celestial celebration of love. Hugs and blessings returned… Beryl

I believe in angels, as Abba sing. They are God's messengers. I always acknowledge them. Hugs.

Thank you very much Victor, I’ve had angels appear from nowhere when I’ve been in need, and so I believe in them too. Hugs returned… Beryl

That's really moving Belle, one of the most moving poems I think I've ever read on here. There's such depth and sadness in there. Yet somehow, you manage to slip in (what strikes me as) a wink and smile: "just a girly earthling" Blessings

Thank you so much Robert, from your comments I feel truly honoured, though on here I’ve read many fantastic poems. It’s always nice to slip in a wink and a smile, smiles always make writing worthwhile. Blessings returned… Belle

They say they do exist, watching over us, no one has proved otherwise. Tom

I’m sure angels exist, experiences have confirmed it for me. Thank you Tom… Belle
