(This is for Martie, for Rosemary....for any mother who has lost a child...) Sorrowing Angel She rests her wing on snowy ground, protecting from the winter's blight an ambered rose, its essence blessed by tears, when to her heart she pressed a tiny child in pureness crowned, that God Himself had molded. And then she calls a silver bird to send it on a gentle flight - a single petal, tinged with white, to warm the grieving mother's breast and mark the song that heaven heard when first the bud unfolded.

this is simply stunning ... both in its imagery and expression of emotion excellent writing LL and a lovely gesture Heaven bound on wings of love, there's so much that you can rise above. I surrender heart and soul, sacrificed to a higher goal. ~DepechMode~ |
