Truely Blessed

Aznas’ wings protect throughout the night
Beautiful as the lustrous morning light

Cascade down from heaven, glowing
Divine while engulfed in knowing

Endless truth and unconditional love 
Frightened while visited from above

Godly essence of the soul
Holy visions begin to take its toll

Innocent thoughts now take the lead
Joy starts as it’s planted a seed 

Kindred, surround as clear as day
Loneliness a rumour, never to play

Mother God to you and I 
Night as bright as the day light sky

Opera, the sound of the song
Nightingales sing, never a note wrong

Protection in life for our sacred blueprint  
Questions asked, answered in a subtle hint

Realm of records, held in a grand hall
Secrets that are given out freely to all

Touched by an aura, making me think twice
Unforgiving actions, knowing I must pay the price

Victorious today, as she is each and every time
White army surrounds me, the harmonic chime

Xanadu, such a rich and glorious place to see
Yuman families blessed also, but never meant to be
Zoetic as she creates life and peace to you and me.

(not for contest, just a first attempt at ABC....Not in the traditional format)

Terrific ABC Gareth, the lovely thing about the ABC form is, it can be written differently. Forms have become so written in stone. Times change and if forms can have a fork in the road like life, then so be it >> James

I usually do not like abc poems, writers tend to take to many liberties to manitain the abc structure which sacrifices the meaning of the write. In this case it was an excellent write, the flow and direction maintained throughout the read. A credit to your imagination and talent. Thanks for the comment on Captured Souls.
