~*~
Alone am I,
With tears that cry,
Down my ruby
cheeks.
I sniffle and moan,
Because I'm alone.
These tears could fill six
creeks!

I awoke this day,
To my dismay,
And found my halo
tarnished.
Oh, dearie me,
This came to be,
Because it wasn't
Varnished!
~*~

LOL This is just a little bit of non-sensical whimsy! I thought to myself after I wrote it---"Where in the dickens did this come from!"  Maybe I'm supposed to go and varnish my "halo"!

Hugs 'n smiles,

Do not dismay
I'm off today
With time to help with halo
You'll be just fine
We'll make it shine
And return our angel's glow!

LOL... enjoyed! *S*

Earth Angel, it was just a little reminder from within to take care of yourself first, or you won't be able to truly give to others the way you so love to.

that halo tarnish
soon will vanish
if you practice kindness
your angel wings
and gentle sings
will lead to tarnish blindness

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

EA,

I am glad you put that "disclaimer" on this one: "Just poetry folks."  You know me, I would have been worried about you.

Cute poem, Angel Girl!

I believe if your halo ever got tarnished, you
would varnish it before anyone noticed.  
Hugs to you sweet Linda,

Actually, dear friend, I myself, appreciate "disclaimers" on poems that I read as well. So often I write replies that are way off base because I may have believed the poet was writing of their personal experience etc...

Love & hugs,
Linda
