Dangling from silver threads
Mistily glowing beneath the clouds…
The guardian began her slow descent
hovering just above the
still pond…
with her only desire
to…
comfort…
to console…
to caress…
to kiss…
to touch…
and to love…
before gliding back up
to her celestial home…
closing her eyes
and resting…
just resting…
till the next time
the need calls
her..

I AM in awe David. The words, the way they come together. Speak to me. Sigh….
Thank you so much:)))). The photo was sooooo lucky:))))
The photo is majestic, breath taking.
Pure luck and I’m thankful to have it:). Thank you:)
Such lovely sentiment and a great photo…makes you just want to sit there…soaking it in. Lovely!
Let me tell you. Was there the right time of day that’s for sure:)
I totally get that..one morning I bundled my kids..and rushed camera and all to our lake to catch the morning fog…other times it’s the angle of the sun through the clouds…the shots happen from the beauty, timing, and a good eye to catch them…the eye, not everyone is gifted with…be glad you are:)
Thank you:). And you’re so right. The same place can look so different at just the right time:)))))
Beautiful-
Thank you cindy:)
David, the picture is divine! I just adore!
It is impressive how nature gives us what’s beautiful artwork!
How nice of surprised, in photography, clouds settled, forming an angel. Absolutely lovely!
I like your poem very much! Thank you so much for your sharing with us all that is beautiful!
Be blessed David with happiness!
Yes!! the angel was amazing…I didn’t notice when I took the photo…only later on did I see! I’m so glad you enjoyed it:))))))))
Really beautiful imagery!
Thank you so much Jessica:))))
Oh my goodness – this is “the one” as you would say David…the photo — it’s mystical and Divine!! I see her – and your words flow like music as companion. Just breathtaking. Pure LOVE!
it is! I didn’t notice what happened till I looked at the photo afterwards…and the words flowed from there. thank you Robyn:) I feel great about todays two posts:)
Your two posts go very well together and glad you feel good about them.

Oh can’t wait to look at 2nd one – when i can focus!!!
Excellent day you are having David — savor it 
I think I’m a guardian…I have the same desires…and would like to skip the rest of life, and just focus on:
comfort…
to console…
to caress…
to kiss…
to touch…
and to love…
And then rest until I am called.
Love the heart of this one.
Sam
yes:))) I know you would be so wonderful at that:)))) thank you Samtastic:)
loved the personification that you put in here, like a true living and breathing person she is, nice way to start the day here David
good to hear… been doing ok now, ranting is over, I’m back to business haha!
lol..Well the rant was effective, judging from your lovely poem:)))
that’s what I always love, my judges are my friends too lol
lolololololololol:))))
i love it, David, are these your words inspired by W.W ? i love it all
Despite our shared last names I’ve never read much WW. Sooo I’m not sure lol. I’m so glad you liked it:)
OH I see…confusing for a moment some of your poetry is not unlike his, at the very least in passion!
hehehehe….maybe there’s a latent whitman connection lol
maybe! we definitely can’t discount the possibility!
Both photo and poem are mesmerizing.
Love the image and the words – beautiful!
Thank you so much…it was a special one to me:)))
