Best Apparitions Poems

Clinging to his pillow
     Wondering
Would he ever lie beside me again
     Praying
Miraculous recoveries can come to pass
     Hoping
Finally sleeping, albeit brief
     Succumbing
Bright light filled the room

Angels have been written about since ancient times,
No more so than in the Holy Bible.
Guardians of the gateway to 
Eden, they’re perceived as spiritual beings that carry out the 
Lord's will in both heaven and on Earth.

Angels tend to appear to
Prophets that get chosen for...

like shadows they follow us
they tell their stories 
on pages 
that may or may not 
be seen, or read,
we a'muse them -

"we", of course, are truly inconsequential
in the greater scheme of things;

they are like ghosts
echoing their called hauntings,
we catch the vibrations of them,

A stone bridge in the middle of a wood, static in eternity, grand in height and darkened by the growing night. 
Upon it sits a man, his legs and mind yearning for the ground below. He is a good man.

White cars stationary on their roofs blocking rural arteries whilst severing others
Unexpected loss of vertical hold and bodily functions frozen in the failing headlights
Beautiful greenery ablaze, beside the twisted wreckage of man.

When Dad
crawled through the window
a precariously hung fire escape,
creaked an alarm 
allowing him to steal 
the only moment
of you, 
swaddled in 
a murder of crows
black feather, like your mother.

You liberated a cacophony of caws
when he bared 
his pinky finger;

The rain blesses us, cleanses, 
And sends water to the soil.
The plants answer on a sunny day,
Thriving and growing.
Ah to have a garden,
Where potatoes and cauliflower,
Corn and lettuce,
Tomatoes and brussel sprouts,

To reap each year. 
Delicious meals at the dinner table,
Prepared carefully.
To bake fresh...

For generations raps, taps and table turnings were
the signs of a spirit calling; the ghoul of you trying to 
deliver a message - to finish unfinished business and 
sleep an everlasting slumber in the clouds above. 
The presence of a loved one floated in white...
