Vigil

Vigil

I looked through the doorway and found a second angel kneeling in vigil.

If I wait long enough he may return

was all it said.

    unnerving, but absolutly lovely at the same time.

    And I bowed my head in prayer,
    please white angle take him away in peace,
    then she stood and took his soul
    to a place I can only hope to be the Summerland.

    Your pieces always make me want to write, I thank you for the inspiration!

    There was nothing to be done,
    As the day left with the setting sun,
    His life had been a short one,
    Soon he would be gone.

    The vigil was angel watched,
    A glow rippled all about,
    He saw her beauty when she touched,
    Saying “It’s time” as his soul let out.

    A nice use of tone, it gives a nice contrast between the white flowing strands of the woman’s clothes and the dark sadness of the room. It reminds me of an Angel come to take one of God’s children back home after a tiring journey. Makes me feel both sad and comforted at the same time. Good work
