(This is part of a special present I wrote for my love Joanna's sister, Kim, who is also a very special friend and loves angels so I wrote this for her!  ) "Flowers are the alphabet of angels, whereby they write on the hills and fields mysterious truths. - Benjamin Franklin" Watercolor Angels By: Noah Eaton 10/17/02 Sleep, child, sleep Rest your head on your stardust pillow Let the sumptuous leaves breeze through your dreams Swathe the stream of lifes mysteries Watercolor angels guide you through the seasons Painting teal peaceful days and mango suns Renovating starry nights Van Gogh still paints In tableaus of mauves with Seurat If flowers are the alphabets of angels Know that you have an angel guiding you as you sleep Who loves you dear Tucking you in where the light doesn't rest Where the rainbows go swimming Remember, child, remember Of the peace you find deep in your soul Make your own epoch of harmony Rediscover how these great blessings came to be It's all in the retina of Delacroix's "Andromeda" All in what you believe It is innocence we should all be living for So let the montage begin Amen... If flowers are the alphabets of angels Know that you have an angel guiding you as you sleep Who loves you dear Tucking you in where the light doesn't rest Where the rainbows go swimming Know the chiarascuro Is all in the rainbow halo Of the angel that holds you dear Sleep, child, sleep The angels will always be near Holding you dear... "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." Shakira [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (10-20-2002 07:17 PM).] |

Aww Noah, that really did make me cry. Kim is lucky to have somone as loving and careing as you to watch over her. The images in your poem reminded me of a dream I had as a child. I love your work, it is so heartfelt. |

Noah, dear sweet one, I don't know how I missed this one. I'm so glad somebody bumped it up here. This is so beautiful, Noah. You are certainly a good friend for anyone to have. Kim should be very thankful to have you for a friend. Thanks for sharing, sweet Noah. Love To All, Ethel |

Noah, the first line of the poem I had just posted is "Sleep, baby, sleep" and the first line of the poem you just posted was "Sleep, child, sleep"---I guess we're two angels that think alike! This write of yours is AWESOME !!!!! Linda |
