In the far off reaches
Of my heart and soul
There lurks a deeper side of me
A spiritual voice that makes me whole
Within my own heart
Of my muse I try to listen
My spiritual angel softly speaks
Of my much needed wisdom
My younger years
Wasted on foolish desires
Adolescence stupidness
Now embers of long ago fires
So now in the autumn of my life
I call upon my spirit within
For decisions that hold their ground
And the presence of Angels I’m in

We all are in the "presence of Angels', but few other than poets ever listen to them, it seems. You obviously have with this fine write, AP! Kudos.
Thank you Louis. I'd like to think so.
I agree with Louis about poets feeling the presence of angels because they bend ears to hear - I love the title as it introduces the access we all have to the spirit and sometimes it takes years to awaken to that. Your hones pen shows you have arrived at that time of welcoming the Presence my friend. Great read.
Thank you Fay. As you are an accomplished poet yourself I know how you understand. I feel the presence of Angels and my muse all the time. I've been writing poetry for 17 years now and I'm always listening, but sometimes the message is not clear, so I must listen closer and longer until the message comes through. Thank you Fay for always reading and complimenting my poetry.
Another winner AP! Thanks for sharing your struggle.
Thank you WC for taking the time to read and compliment.
Oh I shall wax lyrical AP: Hear the sounds of angels voices, maybe singing anew - then I came along and ruined it, cos I sang too! heehee.
I'm a horrible spoilsport. lol.
And we wouldn't want you any other way orchi. The smiles and laughter you encourage are well appreciated.
Love this poem, AP! You are definitely in the presence of angels, I think we all are, but you listen to them. Inspiring wonderful poems such as these! Just a great poem altogether!
Yes Christina, we are all in the presence of Angels. Thank you so much for always reading and your kind compliments.
Those Angels have always been there but in the twilight of our lives we can understand them and see them. Good write AP.
Thanks Andy, so true.
Very spiritual AP , very personal and heartfelt a great write ...
Thank you Bill, appreciate the read and comment.
Well written,. AP! Have to agree with Louis, we poets are all inhabited by angels, sometimes demons, for sure our muse, and numerous other entities that urge us to to what we must: write!
I would have to agree with Louis too Fred. I think I had a pen & paper in the womb and began writing then. But I must have misplaced it upon my birth, so I had to start over again. Thanks Fred.
Good one, AP, like it!
