Unexpected Angels

The swirls of smoky gray clouds separated
As bright light came shining through
Like an angel ready for something to do
As if it was all beautifully fated

Always someone, waiting for that guiding light
When life can be dark, like shaded mountains
Turning black with the rain spitting like fountains
Until, the deeply wounded gain insight

To believe in one’s self is reignited
Blessed by the unexpected angel's arrival
All in the life’s journey of survival
Look all around, believe what is sighted

Every single soul needs guidance on path of life.. After fall we rise. Darkness is followed by Light. Clouds disperse to let the sun shine.. We are empowered by Divine beauty " angels" of the beyond that ignite our heart and soul.. A brilliant poem wrapped in an amazing imagery and loaded with insight. Stay blessed.
