Listening to every heart

Angelically aMusing

My Angel stands in sunshine
I cannot see her there
I only know I'm safe and warm
and wrapped up in her care.

My Angel is all knowing
but lets me trip and fall
only when in most dire straits
does she then take on my call.

My Angel has a sense of humor
and Muse is thus her twin
the two of them are heavenly
and my heart reside within.

Sometimes when one is speaking
the other wants to go on chatting
my mind a whirlwind cage of words
so many of them go unheard!

And when my Muse gets out of hand
my Angel is there to take a stand
to keep priority on the narrow
but with verbiage like an arrow

takes a thought, a word, a whim
to the center of your heart within
and keeps me in your memory close
like a dear and friendly sort of ghost.

So if you have an Angel too
or perhaps just an angelic Muse
keep them happy with your essence
so that we will always have your presence.

Hi Sunshine,
Don't forget to take care of the angel, as it will take care of you. You have expressed this in this poem very well.
