When It Struck 11When it struck 11, I sighed in relief

Yellow Winged AngelI.
He was patient very-very
with child's tenderness in eyes
yellow winged angel's unwary,
He was living quiet in skies.
Without disputes, without roughness,
without want to weep and moan,
He was dreaming among heartless
building cloud castles alone.
He was waking up...

And here we are, drifting apart
like untethered balloons.

ignoring your face.
