Angels’ gate.


We stand together at Angels’ gate,
Our arms entwined in a lattice of hope,
From the North to the South,
The East to the West,
We stand united,
Two abreast.

We stand together at Angels’ gate,
Our arms entwined in a lattice of hope,
Armies falter,
Cities fall,
Yet hope survives,
Hope conquers all.

We stand together at Angels’ gate,
Our arms entwined in a lattice of hope,
Empty hearts,
Hear the cry,
Defeat the enemy,
Live not die.

We stand together at Angels’ gate,
Our arms entwined in a lattice of hope,
The ones who heard,
The ones who came,
Amongst us wounded,
Sick and lame.

We stand together at Angels’ gate,
Our arms entwined in a lattice of hope,
Our last battle,
Hear us sing,
We defy the Angels
For the end they bring.

We stand together at Angels’ gate,
Our arms entwined in a lattice of hope.

In my interpretation of your poem, you have expressed in vivid poetic fashion a marvelous moment in time when all humanity will one day gather together at Angel's Gate... I do also look forward in anticipation to that day when we will defy the temporal forces of the natural mind.  Again, WELCOME and thank you for sharing with us your gift of poetry.  -Bob
