The time is now for me to fly my mind into the winds of the ever seeing eye. To create my fantasy of blessings to shower down on those special enough, taking the time to read this and spread its words around.

Oh Angel of internal healing
Let me seek out the words to reach peoples souls
To show them the beauty within
Let the mirror they see
Glow from the pride inside
From a heart beating in that special way

Oh Angel of external healing
Let them discard that old shell
That restricts them so
Provide them an invisible armor
That will protect from those
Bent on those shrinking others ability
To dance with the music of life’s pleasures

Oh Angel of natures healing
Show them the hummingbirds of color
Whisking for the sweetness of the flowers
See the eagle’s flight to the freedom of the mind
To use their eyes to see all things
That was caged away from sight before
Let them lay in the beauty of a hillside
Full of flowers with butterflies
Tracing the sky with messages of love

Oh Angel of man’s creativity
Let not the dark shadow of despair overpower you
Silence the acidity of the destroyer’s mouths
Generate a gentle rain of pedals so soft
That they reach inside those that hate
To crack their shells from the weight of inner tears
To burst out to cleanse this earth
Let the mire some will build
Step into the whirlwind of insight
On how truly blessed we all are

Oh my Angel
How I have offended you for not speaking out
Letting those that control have their way
The bruises they inflicted hurt the pride
But mine are worse for they are self-inflicted doubts
People say let it lie that they do not know what they do
But years of frustrations rust my way
For their acidic mouths have eaten away my confinement
For the White Eagle must now fly
With the Angels right to change
And create a few words to effect change in others
For the new music must reclaim the spirits
Of those lost who are now seeking themselves
In the healing words that will break their shells
Creating a new person so full of depth
That the Angel of Angels must have blessed them

Amazing inspiring words! Welcome fellow newbie! For anyone who has doubted a dream for anyone who has felt insecurities, these words are for them. If not to uplift them to inspire them to find themselves in such a painfilled world. Cheers! Awesome beginning! Ter.

Alone in the dark, through my thoughts comfort I do seek, through my words I find peace.

Thank you all for the generous invite. I can tell we have poets here who live with their emotions in their hands, putting the love inside them into the screen.

Blessings from someone seeking a path to write from and into.
