About angels ~ angels all about:

This Angel

And the heavenly angels
Said to God -
Why
Must he have
So many children!

And God chuckled -
He is just so expert
At spreading angel dust.

They went on -
But this earth angel.
He cannot feel the dust
Himself.

He has.
He has felt
The dust.
He has felt its magic.
There are times
He feels its lightness
All around him,
Inside of himself.
But now
He sees not the sparkle,
The shimmer.
There are only the tiniest
Of glimmers inside of him,
About him.


What do we do?


Quiet,
Stillness.

God speaks -
There is strength,
So much strength.
This angel has strength.
You
Have strength.

Earth's angels
Have strength.

This -
Is the time to be still.
It is the time to watch,
The time to listen.
Feel
The strength.



Fountain:
I wrote this mainly for the folks at HPS but there have been numerous helpers along the way.

Sometimes I feel like a fountain -

gratitude bursting forth
from the core of my being -
shiny, glimmering threads
of gratitude
for all that is,
and for all that has been.
Mostly they burst forth
for those who have heard
my pleas for help.
Those threads spread out
for you, for many.

Angel Bears

Angels about our house:
Though I can take pictures of some of the angels about our house I prefer not to think of them as an "angel collection". I believe they tend to be innumerable. Cat and I must have hundreds of them - guardian angels and helping angels and guiding angels and angels to pick us up when we fall. Often they come to visit us in disguise. Only later do I realize they graced us with their presence. And when we go out - at HPS alone there are so many that the air seems almost glimmery with them. I feel very blessed to have so many angels all about.
