The locket Got an Angel in my pocket Locked inside a locket And in the back some of her hair A pack that she could spare A treasure I can look and touch A little lover’s crutch It is a piece of something real My alter with a seal Although her home is in my mind It’s the locket I find Whenever I am down and blue And really missing you Here I keep this fair of keepsake This hair of wake and ache And treasure it close to my heart Where it will never part A favors favor of my love My guide unto the stars above |

You must have a pretty big locket to hold all the angels you've likely got in there...  |

Tucked into his pocket's locket is a part of all who hear the angel inside his heart of hearts that he holds so dear. ~*~ |

Sweet spring morning hugs to you, Dear One! Angels gather 'round you Wherever you may go They know you're one of them For they see your spirit glow ~ May your vestments be full of pockets--and have an angel in each one of them!  Angel hugs & kisses, EA |

I do love lockets for their old fashioned charm and especially because they will hold treasures, as you have stated in this poem. Enjoyed. |

The feelings are so real here. I think all of us have a few angels we'd like to keep in lockets the way you did...  Just so that we could carry them around, and never feel lonesome.  _,,,^.^,,,_ |

So Randy is revved up and ready ... roaring to fly high ... to whisk the moth and her Sy-guy off on a whim and wish of sky. Where shall we go for our rhyme scheme dream of Eden's theme? Is there a place you know ... a place your heart holds in esteem? Shall we throw a dart at a map and fly on a dragon's dare ... the destination matters not ... for I would follow you anywhere. |

You treasure that locket as I treasure this poem. I love lockets, always have since I was a little girl. I am always fascinated with what is inside the heart of gold. It seems your locket holds your heart...and, oh, what a beautiful treasure that is. -Patricia |

How lovely Seymour. I have a locket that belonged to my mother and I treasure it dearly. Sorry I am late yet again. This restoration of the house is taking longer than what we thought. Oh well, how about a nice butter tart or two? hugs, Chris "Hope" is the thing with feathers- |

JM, A dart could play a part, but it makes no differance to the art, of trying, sighing and flying. Winkiewinkie Stinky. Jason, Thank you my friend. Patricia, Thank you so much you are a doll. Chris, Thank you for the sweet reply, |

 Angel in your pocket? Take a closer look and see. That is not an angel, Sy, It’s that little devil me!  [This message has been edited by Mysteria (05-14-2003 01:44 AM).] |
