Los Angeles How might we sing through our trials, and hurts so much so that questing angels would smile, even as they might beg to understand the knowing of this moment of living when all they can do is guide us…to a light… Tell me how we might breathe in life’s blood just to spit out the gravel of our falls, our losses… so much so, that those very angels might laugh at our hysterical joy in the because of because, Oh, for they may appreciate some brilliantine, some most vivid sense of colors, sounds, and warmth… but what do angels know from living in joy of trial? Oh, to live a time such that an angel would laugh… at the sound of my fall into life. ~*~ For a friend, that she may find herself... |

Karilea, you write with such ease of expression. Excellent. Big hugs, Chrislane Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance. |

Me, too....I mean, this reminded me of the movie. I think they must delight in all our endeavors. But who knows about the trials....I think we become "like angels" when we rejoice in them, though. Much enjoyed this one. ....jo |

wow, this is powerful, and if angels could feel pain, then they can quickly relate to the human life here Poetry can get you very far |

Once again evidence of friendship that provides value multiplied beyond the words of expression. Done only as you can. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

I could try to quote a favorite part... but I'd end up repeating your poem in its entirety... so instead of trying to convey what I like best of this, I'll just say... it's drawn me back again and again. *S* Beautiful work! |
