On The Great Stage Is A Poetess and An Angel

On The Great Stage Is A Poetess and An Angel

 
And as she slowly lands
upon ground, this time
without my humble request
a surprise, if ever I had one
having her here
without a formal invitation
was truly remarkable 
   
her eyes piercing
even more so than usual
I never dare 
to look directly at them
but I know they are
fifteen carat diamonds
and the aura surrounding us
tells me of 
her ancient beauty
 
I just know, she’s a noble being
and today
there's even more
of a sparkle than usual 
even on the walls, in the room
so incredibly bright
the sun was eclipsed
 
a gracious atmosphere
of pride and of joy
even though I’d give anything
for a mere glimpse of her smile
 
my head was locked down
simply because I was mesmerized
by her feathered wings
graciously laid on the ground 
like cream silk 
 
her energy as warm
and reassuring as always 
and for once…
 
she wasn’t here to comfort me
she wasn’t here to hold my hand 
she was simply here
to celebrate with me
 
and so we danced.
