Premium Member Night In a Heavenly Way

The sun yawns in the horizon as it flutters its eyes 
Honey – yellow, orange, and shades of red 
as it  goes into a deep slumber as the moon awakes in the skies. 

Heaven vast upon the seas 
a pellet of darkest blue violet to a dark inky storm, 
Shearwater skim closes the waves in flight by the breeze. 
While angels weave and caress in loving warmth 
of strength and comfort, an unconditional loving squeeze. 

Our Earthly home
Our paradise, 
Our Eden,
Our heaven.

A place full of sadness
A place of happiness
A daily reminder 
A promise 
Heavenly Angels protect,
Meant to be kept for eternity.

Lighting forks across the night skyline,
the rumble of thunder sounds around.
Angels pure of love and where they're most abound.
They're always nigh an angelic sign.
