tears of an angel

Tears of an angel

------..--------

Winding up his wings

He sits on the steep end of the temple

The angel.

 

Down there people,

People touching

The marvels of ancient carvings,

People praying and wanting this and that

Everybody has his own hunger.

 

The eyes of the angel cloud.

Hear, the salt of the water,

Genesis of an ocean is always

By an angel’s tear.

i always wondered how the angels felt watching us petty mortals whine and yearn over the silliest things. the ,,,winding of the wings,,,,the eyes of the angel cloud,,,two of my favorite lines. great imagery and emotion without being slapped in the face. loved it.

That's great! You have to expect the angels to cry entire oceans over the course of eternity. Man can be so heartless towards his brothers and sisters.

Inspirational piece!

I like it. The way you create an illusion with your words makes it that much more enjoyable. Continue writing!
