shelter in the wings of an angel
protected and safe from the storm
no longer are tears falling
sheltering wings protecting you
safe haven found
an angel
friend

I can't say wether or not it was a nonet, for I don't know what one is.I do know that this was beautiful and a great tribute to a sweet friend I'm sure.

A nonet has nine lines. The first line has nine syllables, the second line eight syllables, the third line seven syllables, etc... until line nine that finishes with one syllable. It can be on any subject and rhyming is optional.

So, looks like your first attempt was a pretty good one met to me

Just a few lines missing to complete the sequence.
