the angel shall breeze entrenched hearts.&lt;br /&gt;I have seen her flurry of happiness and love -a result of myraid hopes;&lt;br /&gt;They they had no tongue,yet spoke with miraculous organs;&lt;br /&gt;Her calmness and composedness as still as the millpond down the hill;&lt;br /&gt;And when her dreams contrasted with reality,the poor thing lost its wings of flight.&lt;br /&gt;She held the pain and its melancholy close to her heart;&lt;br /&gt;Hidden in the throng of injuries in her, was her untold-love.&lt;br /&gt;Moseying around with songs of love, the angel refrained from hurting her soul-companion;&lt;br /&gt;As she sang her own threnodies of sorrow,the last few droplets from her eyes fell on&lt;br /&gt;thou heart,&lt;br /&gt;For the angel had no bourns of love and this puzzles my Will".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A tide of emotions had just embarked on me , I felt a gust of air go in and out of me&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Im a paranoid now and am devoid of love. Have I the strength for the angels final call?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I realized how much I was wronged and weakened&lt;br /&gt;That Id taken shelter under her wings ,but'd forgotten to shield a thing of beauty.&lt;br /&gt;The angel that showed me new horizons of friendship and love, was now lying without wings,&lt;br /&gt;Too fragile to be touched and felt.&lt;br /&gt;This was the reason for my calling on Him.&lt;br /&gt;Knowing I felt equally numb, He looked up the Angels Courtyard and showed me the way.&lt;br /&gt;I saw somethin my eyes couldn beleive;T'was beauty at its best;&lt;br /&gt;For the first time, I witnessed Natures beauty taut up my sleeve;&lt;br /&gt;I was summoned to sail on a raft with the moon sliding back in form.&lt;br /&gt;Finally I saw the angel in all forms and the journey of a promise began - A tryst with my own destiny. Now, As I move on I realize the beaconing of hope in all his creations.I see light in darkness;&lt;br /&gt;For He has hidden love in nature, in trees, in cool winds, in twinkling stars,in music and&lt;br /&gt;everything&lt;br /&gt;And were open for a grab;&lt;br /&gt;I understand the reason why the waves never ceased to flow&lt;br /&gt;Even on the darker days of an alleged ignorance;&lt;br /&gt;I understand that I shall sail on&lt;br /&gt;clinging to the Angel , that He gifted back to me with wings. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32965244-115593210918872738?l=the-restroom.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://the-restroom.blogspot.com/feeds/115593210918872738/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32965244&amp;postID=115593210918872738' title='10 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32965244/posts/default/115593210918872738'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32965244/posts/default/115593210918872738'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://the-restroom.blogspot.com/2006/08/life-thing-of-beauty.html' title='Life- A thing of Beauty'/><author><name>Restroom_guy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14582860420681369709</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>10</thr:total></entry></feed>
