    pirouetting 'cross the moon

    wound 'round a golden spoon...

Murmurs in the wind
Like those echoes from within
Whispering thy name
Like a song hummed by cherubs
Serenading my lost soul....

Now Pell is there
More people swear
Whatever he did rings a bell...

The lights went out,
the music played,
as Angels spread their wings

My name recalled,
my heart enthralled
—as joyous cherubs sing

As to underscore
A higher power's
Well earned happiness for me
Toiler, at year's end
Down-tracked, back and forth
These my swimmer's arms
Dragonfly cherubs. Who's flash
With sun's last did blend....

Sassy Rubenesque cherubs are on their way
Riding multi-colored monarchs on this joyful Tuesday.
We await their giggles, and laughter so gay.
Expecting the best from each of them on the second of May....

Faberge lillies secluded in secrecy
outbound for vast gayness
Irredesent dreams of shrouded angst
perpetual delima abound from baby smiles
Frolicking in and frolicking with animosity
of imagined cherubs with soft eyes 
and pretty lies...

sun-soaked sunflowers flourish, fresh-faced and freckled
with seeds. On stilt-stems, their flourishing legs, and on
tippy-toes, like toddlers, do reach for the stove-hot sun.
Cherubs with innocent countenance, happy in their home.

Cupid shot me down with a flaming arrow in my heart
Rallied his fellow cherubs to stand guard over my soul
And keep watch of the players who steal my innocence for a mind toll
They know that the years have been unkind and love has torn me apart...

Eyelashes caress my cheek,
-- your lips, do the same, on mine,
a pulsating taste, so sweet,
to contrast this plumy wine.

I over indulged, I fear,
a touch on my thigh -- one glance,
and cherubs are keen to play,
with this fairy tale romance....

I think all animals that die
are cuddly cherubs in the sky;
though mayhem must arise for sure,
when rivals meet at heaven's door,
with biting reptiles, gnawing rats,
and snarling dogs and clawing cats...

Noel is in the air, loving Christmas in every instance and circumstance.
Feeling excited about upcoming activities of mirth and merriment.
Silver bells are gently ringing all over the city, and enthusiasm mounts.
My heart leaps as I look into the air seeing the Christmas cherubs…....

Do you remember those Campbell soup ads where the children looked like
cherubs, even when their bad?
Their angelic faces slurping "mm mm good". Mom's ran off to buy some. every body should.
I just met a woman with a Campbell soup face. No matter what she says its
easier to take. Mm mm good....

angelic whispers for you

her heart senses love is so
forgiving and innocent
time well spent releasing woe...

Bethlehem’s star 
luminous cross delicately hung
by cherubs adorning a cold night sky

The warmth of a promise yet to be fulfilled
lured shepherds and wise men alike
to a humble manger
where a Savior drew his first breath
exhaling in the bitter air
of a world He sought to save...

A night and a dry dream
Open my mind to scream
All that was and will be
In remnants fading

Edgar Allan Poe chokes
As a grey face in a hall
Flies though a worn wall
Dark clouds wash over

Gravestones moan gray rain
As marble cherubs mock their pain
With gnarled hands yearning
Can't you see the crypt turning?...

Where have you been my old weary friend
I’ve missed you
I’ve waited so long

Have your travels been far
Can I go where you are
I’ve missed you
Come closer to me

What did you find
Perhaps a glimpse of time
Star dust, cherubs and angels 

When will I know
I’ve missed you so
Where have you been my old weary friend...

Your life's twilight on a
September evening came.
And ferried you were by
crimson cherubs; conveyed
in splendour on a celestial
cruise, to gates pleasant for
a permanent reign.
Your reign on the throne
on a September autumn
exited,
but your indelible legacy
in the hearts of Brits
is enthroned gloriously....

Beyond despair
new light is found
where wasted moments
live again
Befriending capsules
lost to time
the air forgiving
free of sin
Beyond all hope
there lies a wish
where cherubs promise
saving grace
And hopes and wishes
are reborn
as memory resets
—love embraced

Love did not begin without Hope, in the beginning, there was plenty of that
Our souls used to duel above with Cupid and his cherubs in archangelic combat
You see, Hope did not flee until I realized I could not have her, not now, not ever
For I was invisible now, and she was blind, with eyes solely reserved for Another....

Angels
               beautiful, wonderful 
          loving, caring, fascinating
   cupids, cherubs, incubus, succubus
            hating, uncaring, boring
              unpleasant, horrible 
                          Demons

They are around in many forms.
Human, spiritual alike,
Taken for granted into norms,
Now and then awaiting their strike,
Traveling upon heaven’s pike,
Angels are among us each day.
Though not seen, means nothing, I say.
Upon earth, they guide many souls.
Some that does, some that do not, pray.
Cherubs serve, God’s glorious goal....

My Angel
Here she lies
The wise lady
With the blue eyes
My dearest wife
May she rise to Heaven
To touch an angel
As fair as those
She has touched
On this stained earth
For she left me
A happy man,
Her loving and
Devoted Husband
May the Cherubs sing
And the trumpets 
Sound when she
Makes her entrance
Into her celestial
New home....
