Angel

Can't you see
the wings across
his bent back ,
the halo
amidst tousled hair,
the light of knowledge
and understanding
in his attentive eyes.
He is a thirty second
revelation between
the footsteps
of moaning ghosts,
their passing breeze
rustling pages
of belief
held close
to his wandering body.

Nicely written.Must have gone deep and been in the dark at least a few times.

Hi again

That's a lovely poem - I always struggle to write poetry I'm better at prose.

It reminds me of one of my friends who is sweet and angelic but very, very troubled.

All the best.
