PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Someone once asked me,

“What does an angel look like, do you know?

Do they all look like the stereotypical ones,

With curly blonde hair,

And clear blue eyes?”



My answer,

Was simple, and strong.

“No.”

You see I knew an angel,

             And she was very beautiful and kind.



Some angels might,

They might look like the ones on TCV,

But not all angels,

Will look like that.



My angel friend,

She didn’t look like that.

No, she had long, shimmering black hair,

Cocoa brown eyes,

Quirky little armbands,

And an amazing smile.



And, she’s no longer an earth angel

And I feel a void,

Because she now has her wings;

She learned to fly.

We all had to let her go,

And say our goodbye….

For now

Because our angel awaits us with our wings.
