Of owls and angels

Of owls and angels

A Poem by An owl on the moon
"

May your heart be filled with bliss

"


May your heart be filled with bliss

 Even in the ordinary

And with the fire

Nothing can be ordinary again

Smiling at your words

A smile that ripples like waves of magic through me

A connection so strong and alive

Even over these miles

I feel you closer than any around me here

Yes, words of owls and angels

Of God and higher things

Deeper things

More beautiful than a mind can imagine

Just moments ago I opened a book

Filled with ancient poetry and literature

And here is what I read:

O most noble greenness

You who take root in the sun

And who shine in radiant tranquility on the wheel

Whom no earthly excellence surpasses

You are enfolded in the embraces of divine mysteries

You glow like the dawn and burn like the flame of the sun”

How you come alive so deeply in the everything now

And I love to see you shine...

Thank you so much Tamara. It's a joy to have you visit here. :)
And here I thought you were fantasizing about me... I am bereft.
If it's the beard you object to, it goes!
If it's the joint, f**k you, man. Some things are forever.

I really like your poem, though. One question:are you speaking of the Wheel of fortune, from the Tarot, or the Wheel of Life? Just curious.
