Angels are Delicate

Angels are Delicate

A Poem by John Alexander McFadyen

Angels are Delicate

Their beauty is true,

without question.

They have poise and charm,

an elegance of being

so far above mere mortals.

They stand true deportment,

straight backed and graceful,

their hair long, silken strands

their skin milky pure, unchaste.

Their breath is hallowed,

their words misty whispers

that caress the soul

with warm dreams.

Their laugh is a harp of doves

rippling in enchanted echoes,

deep in the heart of our minds.

But even so

angels are delicate.

Sometimes I forget how beautiful the pictures words can paint can be until I read something like this. You’ve weaved a wonderfully intricate tapestry of sensations with this one

'Their breath is hallowed, ~ their words misty whispers ~ that caress the soul
with warm dreams.'

Subtle, sweet words, almost a whisper; a poem to dream about. Methinks everyone should have his or her own angel.

Thank you Emma.
This was very enjoyable to read and guess you are right they are delicate and should be treated with care and respect, the mortal world is not a place for them to dwell
