AN ELEGY ON AN ANGEL'S DREAM

VINOD R S

An Angel met the God in Peace

And pledged her wish               

That she longs and loves           

To be with His people a while

 

Surprised was He and asked in smile 

"Sure are you and dare enough?"

"Never had I or hereafter         

The one & only wish I have       

 For they are the art of thy hand

And want to be with them a while”

 

"Let thy desire bloom "blessed He 

 She was born to man

She was love and she was loved 

On her childhood days as Princess 

Great art her virtue for she art the art 

Great art her virtue for she sang her soul

She was love and she was loved   

Nonetheless, none could hate her

 

Grown she up and refuged she was 

To imprint her shadows twice so fine 

Foster them with light so bright   

 But darker the shadows till the end

 

The shadows grew big and bold 

Even to devour her alive in  dark

Tried she all the sort she could

To live with them, a little more

Only to teach how to  love

For she was love and she wasn't loved

 

With broken wings and shattered dreams

She wept on her heart so high in pain

For 'rejection' the venom she was fed

In all the deeds that she counts for good 

 

Pale and white was she; while rest

In the icy bed, she couched for a day or two

Then she flew back to Him in joy

For sure was she to never ever be back 

 

"Never had with her thereafter

The one & only wish she had"
