I hear angels in the rain Just a call I can't explain Memories always worth the time when I'm alone. Dare I forget so easily What Cupid's arrows did for me Though I loved them then they still linger now. Walking in the heat and wet I can't forget with no regrets Angels in the rain Between the drops they call my name I see them clearly now. So I keep on my peaceful way After all I couldn't stay And though I've made mistakes I weep divine. Walking in the heat and wet I can't forget with no regrets Angels in the rain Between the drops they call my name I see them clearly now |

Oh ethome...this is such a perfect song...Dare I forget so easily What Cupid's arrows did for me Though I loved them then they still linger now...this is so evocative...the love the pain the memories.. [This message has been edited by Jaime Fradera (edited 12-03-2000).] |

angels in the rain? oh...I can hear them too... the rhythm of their holy hearts tapping life upon my roof. A gust of wind is angel's wing... I feel the brush of feathered touch... yes, tonight, the angel's sing to me-- I think I am in love. Thank you, ethome, for the lovely inspiration...(hope ya didn't mind that...) hugs to you, I do understand. |

Ethome, Sir...as I peeked in to read, the sad loveliness of this piece was so ethereal, I think I spied rainbows in the raindrops 'round the crowns on the angels heads... and now I think I shall be happy all of this lovely Sunday... and this is a keeper for my library... < !signature--> Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ [This message has been edited by Sunshine (edited 12-03-2000).] |

Got to agree with the others: "Dare I forget so easily What Cupid's arrows did for me Though I loved them then they still linger now." This stanza positively jumps off the screen and pricks you anew. Fine poetry Wishmaster. ~ You cannot be what you want to be if you do not know who you are ~ |

I enjoyed this pome vary much and I can relate. I loved that you said no regrets. It can be sad when a relationships do not work out, but I think that we learn from them and should not regret. I also know how past loves can linger, the good and the bad. This is one of my fav pomes that i found so far. |

Walking in the heat and wet I can't forget with no regrets Angels in the rain Between the drops they call my name I see them clearly now. So I keep on my peaceful way After all I couldn't stay And though I've made mistakes I weep divine. Walking in the heat and wet I can't forget with no regrets Angels in the rain Between the drops they call my name I see them clearly now ================== you write divine too... and sing divine as well and it SUBLIME for my mind I ADORE this angel kissed verse E-babes.. it needs to be illustrated and turned in to a Hallmark card...or a book this a special piece of writing poet sir jm I looked into the sky for my anthem The words and music came through But words and music can never touch the beauty that I've seen Looking into you |

How does a cowboy fall in love with a poem? Well when it causes him to read it over and over and then be left with a complete warmness deep in his every being...that is how and this one did just that. I do expect to see this one on the main site my friend. Your quill is doing more than mere wonders these days and I want to know your secret to finding such captivating lines. I promise not to over abuse it. A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses. author unknown |

ethome, Beautiful my friend. You write with such feeling from the heart . . . always. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

How gentle phrases can touch so deeply is the mystery of your magical pen. This is a love song that will not be forgotten, just as the rememebrance of love and the tender moments to "weep devine". You have captured many hearts with this one Liz |
