The Sound of Angel's Wings


Have you ever heard
That softest rustling in the wind?
And wondered to yourself
Just what could it have been?

It is a sound that flows over you
Like the coolest wash of rain
And for some uncertain reason
Soothes your soul of all its pain.

My friend, you heard the greatest
Sound that nature ever brings
For the soft and gentle sound you heard
Is the stir of Angel's Wings.

So in your hardest moments
Taken a moment and breathe deep
Still your worried soul just slightly
Relax and let your heart go free.

And you will hear that softest rustling
Like a whisper in your ear
For the Angels are trying to tell you
"We are watching, have no fear."

Terry Woodson

What a serene and peasceful poem this is


this is my favourite part !

It is a sound that flows over you
Like the coolest wash of rain
And for some uncertain reason
Soothes your soul of all its pain.

TerryW~
Well, you sure couldn't have picked
a lovelier subject matter than
'The Sound Of Angel Wings'

This is simply the softest
feathered ~angel kiss~ I've read.
I feel their presence daily ...
listen !  They are here !
Thank you for this reminder
to listen.

This was so comforting,I enjoyed it

Or bends with the remover to remove.

Do you care what is thought by others about you
If this day is all that is promised to you
Do you live for the present, the future the past...

Thanks everyone, for reading my poetry.  Poetry is very special to me, but one gets so much more from sharing it than from keeping it locked away from other's eyes.  I am glad I have friends like you all to share it with!

Yes I've heard the soft rustling in the breeze~
It creeps up along side me, gently caressing my soul in need~
I never go a day without hearing that whisper so dear~
I know it's my mother following, letting me know that she is near~

I loved your poem Terry~
As you can tell, I believe in Guardian Angels.. my mother is mine~

Beautifully done....I've always asked for and given **Angel wing hugs** they are the ones that are given with the expectation of nothing in return.
