Quietly Listening…. Trying to shut out everyday sounds, for I feel that you’re somewhere, around in the great dense come forth in murmur I lean forward a little more sure that if I lean into this fond voice, then that is where I’ll find my choice… is it then, my conscience speaking for what was lost or what I’m seeking, or is it voice of angels come or just a fly or mosquito’s hum? Where do these thoughts come some unbidden, as if from a deep source in my past, well hidden? What have I not given amend thereto? Should I go to knee, duly bend for you? Is it a bit of common sense that I hold forth now in recompense? Is it an angel to guard my moves to fit me in a way of safety's groove? Or is God trying to get my ear is He calling to me “listen, my Dear…” Might someone give me the key to open up this great mystery of these voices and feelings vast do they stem from present … or past? But with the voice, comes the feel of hands touching of a … surreal … of a bond, a hope, a guarantee, as it warms the heart of me, it wraps around the whole of me, encompassing the fine of me… Yes, it’s in the Voice I hear, so I keep it close, and very near, I try to shut out the everyday sounds as I feel you’re somewhere, around and I choose to believe, my dear, that you are my angel, standing quite near…. ~*~ Originally posted 7/10/01 My mother's birthday...only several years later...  today, reposted, for several special angels... |

"But with the voice, comes the feel of hands touching of a … surreal … of a bond, a hope, a guarantee, as it warms the heart of me, it wraps around the whole of me, encompassing the fine of me…" Very cool verse Kari. "The fine of me"...love that line...  |

Yes, it’s in the Voice I hear, so I keep it close, and very near, I try to shut out the everyday sounds as I feel you’re somewhere, around and I choose to believe, my dear, that you are my angel, standing quite near…. Believe. It can be exactly so -- I am living proof. |

Sometimes I listen too... And I hear the sounds of them brushing past me and whispering to me. It's one of the most beautiful sounds there are. That and... poetry. This is beautiful. Always, Alyssa Poems are made by fools like me, |

I think you do hear that voice, that angel, and I think it is very clear to you. Maybe not your ears, but your heart. This is a very inspiring poem. Beautiful thoughts into words. JL She said: ”You look cute in the dark.” |

"But with the voice, comes the feel of hands touching of a … surreal … of a bond, a hope, a guarantee, as it warms the heart of me, it wraps around the whole of me, encompassing the fine of me" I love that verse, Karilea. The entire poem was filled with a gentle searching and then you resolved it so very beautifully. I believe in angels, too! .....jo |
