Touched By An Angel

…Jesus spoke…”I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.

JOHN 8:12


TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL


touched by an angel, an angel
                                      of light 

representation of the artist’s inner
                                              heart

most patrons gather ‘round the
                                      familiar

   but i see a verse - my spouse and i
we are drawn away from the water
                                      to the light

the apparition, in the artist’s mind -
                                          strong

                                           ethereal

                                         now
we are connected to the artist’s bond
                            with the Almighty

       united in spirit - with him
                          and his wife
                      and Jesus Christ

along with the fluorescent green
                          illumined yellow
my feet
almost nearly touch the ground

A heavenly experience of being united with the Almighty in spirit and flight, but not losing touch with the ground.... ! A lovely poem, dear Kim.
